Real Madrid plans €200‑plus million bid for Bayern winger Michael Olise

Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez has made German winger Michael Olise, the 24‑year‑old French international who plays for Bayern Munich, the club’s top transfer target. Reports from several European outlets say Madrid is ready to offer more than €200 million – up to €220 million – to secure the player, a sum that would rank among the most expensive moves in football history. The club has denied any direct contact with Olise or his representatives, stressing its respect for the long‑standing relationship with Bayern. Bayern defender Dayot Upamecano, speaking after France’s World Cup win over Paraguay, emphatically repeated that Olise is staying at the German club. Bayern’s hierarchy also insists the winger is not for sale, with a long‑term contract running to 2029. Olise’s form at the 2026 World Cup, where he supplied multiple assists, has driven his market value, prompting Madrid to consider financing the fee through player sales. The saga reflects a rare clash between two of Europe’s biggest clubs over a potential record‑breaking transfer.
