Liverpool are reportedly dreaming of signing 23-year-old French international Michael Olise from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window.
Michael Olise is one of the best attacking players in the world right now, and it is no surprise that Liverpool are keen on signing him. According to a report by Football Insider, the Premier League champions have identified him as a dream target.
The Reds need more quality and cutting-edge in the final third, and Olise would be an exceptional addition. Mohamed Salah has announced that he will leave the club at the end of the season, and they need to replace him properly. The Egyptian has been an indispensable asset for Liverpool over the years. The Bayern Munich attacker could be the ideal replacement for Salah.
Michael Olise Bundesliga 2025/26 stats

- Pass accuracy: 84%
- Acc. crosses per game: 1
- Succ. dribbles per game: 2
- Duels won per game: 5
- Balls recovered per game: 3.4
He has shown that he can score goals consistently and create opportunities for his teammates as well. The Frenchman is an elite talent with a bright future, and signing him would be a masterstroke from Liverpool.
However, Olise has a long-term contract with Bayern Munich, and the Bundesliga champions will not want to let him leave. It seems highly unlikely that Liverpool will be able to get the deal done, especially with Uli Hoeness insisting that a summer sale is not on the cards.
Liverpool likely to be priced out of Olise move
Even if Bayern Munich were to sanction his departure, they would demand an absurd amount of money for his signature. Liverpool needs to improve multiple areas of their squad in the summer, and spending a major chunk of their transfer budget on a single player might not be wise.
Olise has shown his quality in the Premier League with Crystal Palace, and there is no doubt he could transform any team in the Premier League. He would be a world-class acquisition for most teams across Europe.
The French attacker is playing for one of the best teams in Europe, and he is fighting for league titles and the UEFA Champions League. He has no reason to leave the Bundesliga club, and he is unlikely to force an exit. Despite the transfer rumours, our move seems extremely unlikely.
