Paris 2024 Olympics: French volleyball star, Earvin Ngapeth candidate to be flag bearer. Last week, the 33-year-old reportedly sent an email to Axelle Guiget, national technical director, in which he expressed his wish to become a standard bearer.

A proposal studied and validated by the executive office of the French Volleyball Federation. "He is the symbol of French volleyball, he represents our sport well and he is an excellent candidate," says Éric Tanguy.
