Overview
- Real Madrid issued an official statement on Saturday saying there was no direct or indirect contact with Michael Olise or his representatives.
- FC Bayern have repeatedly rejected sale talk, describe Olise as unsellable and are reported to be working on a contract extension beyond his current 2029 expiry.
- Spanish outlets pushed speculation of a world‑record fee near €200–220 million, but Madrid’s denial and Bayern’s stance leave those figures uncorroborated.
- Reports that Olise deleted Bayern photos from his Instagram were noted by media but also explained as routine archiving and not proof of transfer intent.
- Olise’s breakout season — widely reported totals include roughly 22 goals and 31 assists across competitions — is the likely driver of interest, and any future move would depend on player will, contract timing or direct club negotiations.
