Bayern Munich’s latest signing, Michael Olise, is set to make his mark and help the team secure numerous titles following his recent five-year contract.
“I want to prove myself at this level and play my part in ensuring that we win as many titles as possible with our team in the coming years,” declared Olise on Sunday via the Bayern Munich site.
The young star’s ambitious statement signals the start of a promising new chapter in his career, as he transitions from Crystal Palace to the German giants.
Bayern Munich announced Olise as their latest summer acquisition on Sunday, securing the talented player with a €53 million deal for five years.
This significant move sees Olise following in the footsteps of Harry Kane, with both players making the leap from the Premier League to join the Bundesliga powerhouse.
The French youth international, who is set to represent his country at the upcoming Paris Olympic Games, expressed his excitement for the new challenge.

“The talks with Bayern were very positive, and I’m very happy to now be playing for such a big club. It’s a great challenge, and that’s exactly what I was looking for,” Olise shared with the club’s website.
At Bayern, Olise will be under the guidance of new manager Vincent Kompany, who recently transitioned from Burnley. Initially expected to provide backup for Leroy Sane, the left-footed player could potentially work his way into the starting lineup.
Bayern Munich’s chief, Max Eberl, expressed his enthusiasm about the acquisition, stating, “Michael Olise is a player who can make the difference and attracted great interest with his style of play.
We want new impetus in our team, new energy, new ideas – that’s what players like Michael Olise stand for.”
Eberl also emphasized Olise’s eagerness to join the club, adding, “During the talks, he quickly signaled that he really wanted to join FC Bayern. We’re very much looking forward to him. He will enrich our game.”
This transfer marks a significant moment, with Olise now ranking as the fourth most expensive signing in Bayern Munich’s history.
