Paris 2024 Olympics: an ethical criterion should prevent Nikola Karabatic from being flag bearer. The standard bearers of the Olympic and Paralympic delegations, elected by their peers, will be known in mid-July.

Each federation will have the possibility of presenting a representative who must meet certain eligibility criteria, in particular having already been an Olympian and not having already carried the flag in a previous edition. Teddy Riner, Clarisse Agbégnénou, Kylian Mbappé and Victor Wembanyama are among the headliners best known to the general public.
