Liverpool are reportedly monitoring Michael Olise's contract situation at Bayern Munich after being made aware of how much it would cost to prise Antoine Semenyo away from Bournemouth. The Premier League title holders continue to scour the global transfer market for a potential long-term successor on their right wing to Egyptian superstar Mohamed Salah.

Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund has directly addressed ongoing transfer speculation about star winger Michael Olise. It comes after fresh rumours that several of the Premier League's leading clubs are hoping to take him back to England and would potentially offer the Bundesliga champions as much as nine figures for the France international.

Michael Olise, one of the most dangerous attackers in Europe at the moment, has found himself high on the list of transfer priorities for clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea, who are willing to splash over €100 million to sign the Frenchman. Bayern Munich, however, are absolutely determined to keep hold of their star player and have already started internal discussions over his renewal.

Another Frenchman could lift the Ballon d'Or by following the Ousmane Dembele blueprint. Indeed, according to Bayern Munich legend Lothar Matthaus, Michael Olise has the potential to become the first Ballon d'Or winner from Die Roten after 45 years. The 23-year-old has been exceptional since arriving from Crystal Palace in 2024 and is reportedly set to be offered a new deal.

Bayern Munich are prepared to reward Michael Olise with a contract extension just over a year after he arrived from Crystal Palace on a deal that runs until 2029. The Frenchman has been phenomenal ever since his switch to the Allianz Arena, and the Bavarian giants are reportedly adamant on wasting no time to tie down their superstar with a renewal.
