Robert-Michon, who won bronze in Zurich 2014, will be making a record eighth appearance at the European Athletics Championships having made her debut at these championships all the way back in Budapest 1998.
A late addition to the decathlon entry list is the world record-holder and 2017 and 2022 world champion Kevin Mayer - also a three-time European indoor heptathlon champion - who does not have the entry standard but has received a wildcard for Roma 2024.
"The French Athletics Federation requested a wild card for Kevin Mayer which the European Athletics Executive Board carefully considered,” explained European Athletics President Dobromir Karamarinov
"We recognised that Kevin is a two-time world champion in the decathlon, most recently in 2022, and the current world record-holder. Given his exceptional achievements, there was considerable merit in granting this wild card.
“European Athletics knows that it will add great interest for the public when they see a global star and world record-holder like Kevin competing at Roma 2024 and we are happy to welcome Kevin,” he added.
