Michael Olise of Crystal Palace wins the race for Bayern Munich.

As both clubs announced on Sunday, Michael Olise has moved from Crystal Palace to Bayern Munich. Despite missing a significant portion of the previous season due to injury, Olise, who is under contract with Bayern for five years, scored ten goals in 19 NFL outings.

Michael Olise represents a man who might make a difference, and his unique style of play has drawn a lot of attention, according to a statement from Max Eberl, a board member for Bayern Munich’s team.

Players such as Michael Olise represent what we want in terms of fresh ideas, new energy, and new motivation for our team. He made it clear early on in the negotiations that he was serious about joining FC Bayern. We are eagerly anticipating his arrival. He will improve our performance.”

The 22-year-old winger apparently turned down offers from Manchester United, Chelsea, and Newcastle in favour of a move to the Bundesliga, where he would partner up offensively with Bayern No. 9 Harry Kane, according to sources who spoke with the TV channel.

Olise wrote on Bayern’s X, “This is precisely where I was looking for—a great challenge.” “We are immensely proud of all that Michael has accomplished on Crystal Palace, the club in which he has greatly developed as a player,” said Crystal Palace chairperson Steve Parish in a statement.

“We respect his desire to further test himself at the highest level of world football, and I would like to personally wish him the very best for his next adventure with Bayern Munich in Germany which I’m sure we will all follow closely.”

The possible cost of the transaction, according to sources who spoke to ESPN, delayed Chelsea’s attempts to recruit Olise. After Bayern invoked a waiver clause in his contract, the French under-21 internationally is expected to cost the German team about £60 million ($76.8 million).

Olise missed a large portion of the previous season because of a hamstring injury, yet he still managed to make 19 appearances and score 10 goals for Crystal Palace.

He is scheduled to fly to Paris in July as part of the France squad for the Olympic football event.

Since coming to Crystal Palace in July 2021, the 22-year-old winger—who previously played for Reading—has developed into a premier player, making 90 appearances, recording 25 assists and 16 goals.

These included the club’s 2022–2023 Goal of the season, a stunning free kick towards Manchester United; our 600th English Premier League goal, an incredible late-game victory at London Stadium against West Ham United; and our brilliant individual performance against Luton Town in November of last year.

After Olise became the first player at Palace to earn double digits in assists in a single Premier League season, he was also chosen as the 22/23 Players’ Player of the Season.

Chairman Steve Parish stated: “We are incredibly proud of Michael’s accomplishments at Crystal Palace, a team where he has matured as a player tremendously.”

“We honor his ambition to challenge himself even more at the top level of international football, and I individually wish him the best of luck on his upcoming journey alongside Bayern Munich in Germany, which I’m sure we will all be following very closely.” Wishing Michael luck for the next stage in his career is the hope of every member of the football team.
