Bayern Munich has informed Real Madrid that Michael Olise is not for sale, and the white club has decided not to pursue his signing this summer. The relationship between both clubs has been key in this decision.
Bayern Munich has been unequivocal: Michael Olise is not moving. The German club has communicated to Real Madrid that the French winger, one of the sensations of the 2026 World Cup, will not be transferred in this transfer window. In light of this stance, the Madrid board has decided to take a step back and abandon their pursuit of him for the upcoming season.
Bayern closes the door on Olise
According to journalist Christian Falk, head of football at the German newspaper BILD, the Bavarians have been firm:
“There is no possibility of the player leaving in this transfer window. Bayern has made it very clear to the player.”The German club considers Olise a key piece in Vincent Kompany's project, and they are not willing to negotiate his departure, even in the face of a lucrative offer.
The Bayern decision comes after Olise shone in the World Cup with France, forming a lethal duo with Kylian Mbappé. His performance has skyrocketed his market value, but it has also strengthened the German club's determination to retain him. Real Madrid, which had shown interest for months, now finds itself facing an insurmountable wall.
Real Madrid accepts the situation
The response from Real Madrid has been swift. As confirmed by Falk, the white club has accepted that they will not be able to secure Olise this summer.
“I want to reiterate that both clubs maintain a very close relationship. They have agreed that nothing will happen regarding Olise this summer,” the journalist explained.Furthermore, the good rapport between the boards has allowed Florentino Pérez to promise Bayern president Herbert Hainer that if any movement arises in the future, Real Madrid will call first before acting.
This decision represents a setback to Florentino Pérez's plans, who was looking for a luxury reinforcement for the attack. However, the white entity is already working on other alternatives to cover the right wing, although none with Olise's profile. The transfer market remains open, but the dream of the French winger will have to wait at least another year.
For Madrid fans, the news comes as a cold shower. Olise had become the standout name in summer rumours, and his World Cup performance had only heightened expectations. However, patience will be key: the relationship with Bayern is good, and the future may still hold a twist. For now, it’s time to wait and look at other targets.
