Real Madrid ready to offer €260M for Olise, Bayern remains inflexible

Real Madrid is prepared to spend up to €260 million to sign Michael Olise this summer, but Bayern Munich maintains that the French international is not for sale.

According to transfer specialist Ekrem Konur, the Madrid club is preparing an offer of €222 million with €38 million in bonuses to convince Bavarian executives to part with their 24-year-old winger. Such a sum would exceed the world transfer record and testifies to Florentino Pérez’s personal interest in the player, who was developed at Crystal Palace and is now one of the revelations of the ongoing World Cup.

Despite the scale of the proposed offer, Bayern Munich’s position remains firm. Journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the German club refuses to negotiate, clarifying that Real Madrid itself wanted to make clear that no discussions were underway in order to preserve its good relations with Munich. “Real Madrid wanted to communicate this to make sure its relations with Bayern Munich remain good. But Real Madrid loves Olise. Florentino Pérez adores him,” Romano said on his YouTube channel.

Olise, who shone during the group stage of the World Cup before a more laboured performance against Paraguay in the round of 16, is tied to Bayern until June 2029. The Bavarian club could, however, reconsider its position if the player himself made a request to leave — a scenario that has not been confirmed at this time.

Paris Saint-Germain is also among the clubs interested in the Franco-British winger’s profile, which could fuel competition likely to shift negotiations as the summer progresses.
