Michael Olise Wins Bundesliga Player of the Season

The honor rewards a rare double-digit goals‑plus‑assists season that validates Bayern’s €60m bet.

Overview

  • The DFL presented the award at Allianz Arena after Saturday's 5-1 win over Köln, with CEOs Steffen Merkel and Marc Lenz handing Olise the trophy.
  • Olise delivered 15 goals and 19 assists in 32 league matches, driving Bayern’s attack from the right wing.
  • His double-digit totals in both categories are unusual in the Bundesliga and match a feat last seen with Jamal Musiala in 2022/23, with Luis Díaz also hitting it this season.
  • The recognition makes it back-to-back winners from Bayern after Harry Kane earned the prize in 2024/25.
  • Bayern signed Olise from Crystal Palace in 2024 for about €60 million, a move now framed as strong value by the club’s return in output and awards.
