Michael Olise is attracting a great deal of attention from Europe’s elite outfits.
Both Liverpool and Manchester are understood to be interested in the French international after a superb opening campaign at Bayern Munich.
The right-sided winger registered a remarkable 43 goal contributions (20 goals, 23 assists) in 55 appearances (across all competitions) last term.
He already finds himself on three goals in three games (across all competitions) in a superb start to the 2025/26 campaign.

Christian Falk now reports that Premier League clubs are maintaining a watching brief on Olise following his 2024 departure from Crystal Palace.
“It is TRUE: Premier League clubs have Michael Olise on their radar. The Frenchman is currently in top form,” the Bayern transfer insider exclusively informed CF Bayern Insider.
“Thomas Müller already predicted in a conversation with me that the winger would become an absolute leader at FC Bayern! Of course, other top European clubs have also noticed this.”
Intrigue in the Bundesliga wide man is surely only set to increase further after a tremendous start to the season.
Which clubs are interested in Michael Olise?
Liverpool and Manchester City have been credited with interest in Michael Olise.
However, as Falk reports, the Premier League outfits aren’t alone in keeping a close eye on the 23-year-old.
Champions League holders PSG are also understood to be keen on the Frenchman.
That being said, there remains a significant catch despite reports to the contrary – interested clubs won’t benefit from an alleged release clause.
“PSG are interested in Olise, and as a Frenchman, he would fit perfectly into the Ligue 1 outfit’s philosophy,” the head of football at the BILD Group added.
“But in England, too, there is annoyance that the player was not kept in the Premier League. Only Newcastle made a serious effort, but lost the poker game against Bayern Munich.
“Now, bigger clubs like Liverpool and Manchester City are also interested in Michael Olise.
“However, FC Bayern will not accept any offers. Good news for Bayern: the rumours about an exit clause in Olise’s contract are NOT TRUE.”
How much is Olise worth to Bayern Munich?
It’s hard to put a figure on the attacker, but, ultimately, with a contract not set to expire until the summer of 2029, Bayern have little to fear when it comes to a potential drop in value.
Olise likewise continues to prove to be integral to Bayern’s efforts at achieving silverware, so the Bundesliga giants are absolutely justified in playing hardball over a price tag.
Transfermarkt, for what it’s worth, value the footballer at €100m [£86.4m], but that feels a conservative estimation in our view.
Let’s put it this way – if Nick Woltemade is set to head to Newcastle for £73.5m, Michael Olise’s value should surpass the £100m mark. Minimum.
