Michael Olise, winger for Bayern Munich, is among the key names that Real Madrid is considering for the summer transfer market of 2026, according to the latest reports.

Olise joined Bayern in the summer of 2024 from Crystal Palace for around €60 million. His contract with the German club runs until 2029.

The 2024-25 season saw him produce impressive numbers: over 20 goals and assists across all competitions, playing a decisive role in Bayern winning the Bundesliga title. This season, including the Club World Cup, he has scored 7 goals and provided 5 assists in 12 matches.

Real Madrid views Michael Olise as an ideal signing

Under the management of Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid aims to enhance its offensive rotation. Olise is seen as a potential starter on the right flank, especially if Brahim leaves the club.

Olise would prefer a move to Real Madrid over other offers from Premier League clubs like Liverpool or Manchester City, as reports suggest he has already chosen the Whites as his ideal destination if he decides to move.

Comparison with the offers from English giants

Liverpool sees Olise as a natural successor to Mohamed Salah, while Manchester City is also pursuing him due to the imminent departure of Bernardo Silva, whose contract ends in the summer. However, Real Madrid seems to be leading the race to secure him for 2026.

Challenges for the signing and contractual scenario

Bayern Munich is not willing to let Olise leave easily. There are reports that the German club is looking to extend his contract to prevent his departure.

Real Madrid is considering making a significant offer to acquire him. However, the costs, the current release clause, and the competition for big signings could complicate the operation.

What role would Olise play if he arrives at the Santiago Bernabeu?

Olise could compete for a starting position on the right wing against Franco Mastantuono, and cover for a potential departure of Brahim. His profile includes speed, dribbling ability, and goal-scoring prowess, attributes that align with the offensive style Xabi Alonso aims to implement.

With consistent playing time, Olise would have the opportunity to establish himself quickly. He has already demonstrated at Bayern that he can provide assists and goals even under pressure. This experience would be crucial for adapting to the demanding level required at Real Madrid.

Michael Olise is not just a market commodity; he is a serious alternative that Real Madrid is considering to strengthen their attack for the 2026 season. If all goes well, he could become a key offensive asset under Xabi Alonso.
