Michael Olise is being heavily linked with a transfer from Bayern Munich to Real Madrid, potentially with a record-breaking fee changing hands, but Jeremie Aliadiere has told GOAL that the France international should spend “another year” in Germany before considering a change of scenery. The classy winger needs to learn how to handle the added weight of expectation that is being lumped onto his shoulders.
Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise surprised local football enthusiasts in New York City by unexpectedly taking part in a public recreational match. Having recently concluded his international campaign with France at the World Cup, the 24-year-old was spotted playing in socks, earning widespread praise for his grounded love for the game.
With the World Cup over and pre-season friendlies beginning in earnest over the next week, it feels like the new club season is hurtling towards us at a rather alarming rate. With that in mind, managers are getting increasingly twitchy when it comes to transfers, with coaches around Europe keen to know which players they will and won't be able to call upon over the coming weeks and months.
Lothar Matthaus has strongly dismissed the recent rumours linking Michael Olisye with a sensational transfer to Real Madrid this summer. The former Bayern Munich captain remains incredibly confident that the France international winger will stay in Germany, despite widespread reports suggesting the Spanish giants are preparing a record-shattering bid to lure him away.
And so the 2026 World Cup has come to a close after an enthralling 39 days that saw Spain get their hands on the trophy. Throughout the showpiece tournament in North America, GOAL, in association with eToro, has been tracking the value of some of the world's most sought-after talents. Did their price rise or plummet?

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has reportedly identified Michael Olise as his top priority for the summer transfer window, viewing the France international as the next potential 'Galactico' at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, the Spanish giants are proceeding with extreme caution to avoid a diplomatic fallout with Bayern Munich.
After five weeks, a record 104 matches played and 308 goals scored, the 2026 World Cup is officially over. From a purely footballing perspective, FIFA's biggest tournament of all time did not disappoint, with 48 teams doing battle across three host countries and the vast expanse of North America. And when 46 of those nations had been whittled away, only the top two ranked teams on the planet remained: Spain and Argentina.
