It is TRUE: Liverpool and Manchester City have been dealt a blow in their pursuit of Michael Olise. We already heard that the French international doesn’t have a release clause in his contract (as was the case at Crystal Palace before). But, of course, no one could be 100% sure on the matter. Now, head of sport, Max Eberl, has officially confirmed that there is no release clause, and this was a clear sign to the Premier League to say, “You’ve got no chance of getting this player.” They now want to give him a new contract, and I can tell you that Olise is really, really into the team.
Michael Olise isn’t a man who’s talking a lot, but what I can say is that he’s always talking to his teammates on WhatsApp when he’s at home on the couch. Players have told us he’s constantly dropping WhatsApp bombs and saying, “Hey, how are you? Are you feeling well? You trained great today!” So, he’s quiet when it comes to the media, but he’s a big WhatsApp leader in the group.
