“Michael Olise, a key player for Crystal Palace, has made a surprise decision to sign with Bayern Munich, despite receiving interest and offers from multiple Premier League teams.”
“The Athletic reports that Michael Olise will join Bayern Munich in the summer, choosing the German powerhouse over Premier League suitors Chelsea and Newcastle United. Chelsea had engaged in negotiations with Crystal Palace for the 22-year-old winger but ultimately withdrew from the pursuit due to the excessive cost of the transfer.”
“Michael Olise spent his early years developing at Chelsea’s youth academy from 2009 to 2016, then moved to Manchester City’s youth setup. He later joined Reading, where he transitioned into senior football and made a name for himself, ultimately leading to his transfer to Crystal Palace in 2021.”

“Chelsea nearly secured Olise’s signature last year, but he chose to commit to Crystal Palace with a new four-year contract, featuring improved terms and a £60m ($76m) release clause. This clause has now attracted the attention of numerous top clubs globally, sparking a frenzy of interest in the talented winger.”
“What’s next for Michael Olise?”
“While Olise is currently representing France at the Olympics, his agents are expected to finalize contract details with Bayern Munich. If everything falls into place, he will join forces with Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala at the Allianz Arena for the upcoming season.”
