Bayern Munich has confirmed the signing of Michael Olise from Crystal Palace for £52 million. The 22-year-old French right winger has signed a five-year deal with the Bundesliga giants, marking a significant step in his career.
Olise was a target for several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea, and Newcastle United. Despite these interests and Palace permitting Chelsea and Newcastle to speak with him, Olise opted to move to Germany.
In a video shared on Bayern Munich’s social media platforms, Olise was seen wearing the club’s iconic red shirt. Expressing his excitement, he said, “The talks with FC Bayern were very positive, and I’m very happy to now be playing for such a big club. It’s a great challenge, and that’s exactly what I was looking for. I want to prove myself at this level and play my part in ensuring that we win as many titles as possible with our team in the coming years.”
Bayern’s Vision for Olise
Bayern’s sporting director, Christoph Freund, outlined the reasons behind the club’s pursuit of Olise. “Michael is quick, tricky, a goal threat, and very versatile in attack. His goals and assists stats are already outstanding. At the age of 22, Michael is already very advanced, but is also hungry and still has a lot of potential. Fans come to the stadium to see players like Michael Olise.
Olise’s move to Bayern Munich is seen as a significant step in his career. His versatility and attacking prowess are expected to add depth to Bayern’s squad, contributing to their quest for titles in the coming years.
