Bayern 'Tying Down' Olise with New Lucrative Contract

Bayern Munich is moving to 'lock down' French winger Michael Olise with a new, improved contract, despite strong interest from major European clubs such as Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool and Real Madrid. Bayern's management has no intention of discussing any offers for his sale, as they consider him a key member of the team. The new contract proposed to Olise will run until the summer of 2031, with his annual earnings increasing from €5 million to €8 million. In addition, it will include a release clause of €200 million, making his departure extremely difficult. Bayern's sporting director, Max Eberl, described Olise as one of the best players in the world and his transfer as one of the best in German football in the last decade. Olise moved to Bayern in the summer of 2024 from Crystal Palace for €68 million and has had impressive performances, with 15 goals and 26 assists in 37 games in all competitions. Bayern appears determined to keep him in the team for many years. Bayern's effort to renew Olise's contract shows their faith in his abilities and their desire to retain one of their most talented players.
