LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are both interested in signing Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise, with the two European giants closely monitoring the France international’s situation.
Bayern, however, are determined to keep the 24-year-old and are understood to regard him as a key figure in Vincent Kompany’s long-term plans.
Reports suggest the Bundesliga champions would only consider offers in excess of €225 million, a valuation that would surpass the world-record €222 million Paris Saint-Germain paid for Neymar in 2017.

Despite competing for Olise’s signature, PSG and Real Madrid are said to have a “gentleman’s agreement” under which the club that falls behind in the race would step aside, allowing the other to negotiate directly with Bayern if the player signals his preferred destination.
Olise has emerged as one of Europe’s most sought-after attackers following an impressive campaign in Germany, with his dribbling ability, creativity and set-piece delivery attracting interest from several elite clubs.
PSG reportedly view the winger as a potential marquee addition as they continue building for the future, while Real Madrid are understood to see him as a long-term option to strengthen their attack.
For now, no formal bids have been submitted. Bayern remain in a strong negotiating position, while both PSG and Real Madrid are waiting for greater clarity over Olise’s intentions before making their next move.
