Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise has reportedly told his France teammates that he wants to leave the Bundesliga champions and join Real Madrid next season.
According to French newspaper L’Équipe, the 24-year-old revealed his ambition during the FIFA World Cup, with Real Madrid already aware of his interest and expected to open talks after the tournament despite Bayern’s determination to keep him.
Olise, whose contract with Bayern runs until 2029, is reportedly eager to take the next step in his career by securing a move to the Santiago Bernabéu.
The report added that fellow France international and Bayern defender Dayot Upamecano has attempted to convince the winger to remain in Munich.
However, Bayern president Herbert Hainer has publicly ruled out the possibility of selling the player.
“Florentino Pérez can save himself the trouble of making an offer for Olise; we do not want to sell,” Hainer said.
Olise joined Bayern from Crystal Palace and has quickly become one of the club’s standout attacking players.
L’Équipe also claimed that a potential move to Madrid could have implications for the club’s current squad, with Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior among those reportedly facing uncertainty. The publication cited reports of a strained relationship between Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé, as well as Vinicius’ unresolved contract negotiations, although neither claim has been confirmed by the players or the club.
Real Madrid have yet to comment on the reported interest in Olise.
