TEAMtalk’s transfer insider, Dean Jones, has reported that Liverpool has an interest in Michael Olise and that Bayern is reluctant to sell the winger. According to Jones, a 2026 transfer could only happen if the former Crystal Palace player was unhappy and requesting the move. Jones has also said that the player is not unhappy and is not requesting a move.

On September 4, Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele reported on Liverpool’s interest in signing Michael Olise to be a long-term successor to Mo Salah. This claim was subsequently supported by journalist Alan Nixon and Bild reporter Christian Falk, who also noted that while Bayern Munich do not want to sell Olise, they will not begin talks for a price below €100m (£87.2m, $117m).

Team Talk reports that Liverpool are monitoring Michael Olise. Liverpool have a strong desire to sign Michael Olise from Bayern Munich, but that will be extremely difficult.

Michael Olise is the subject of interest from numerous Premier League clubs. According to Max Eberl, the sporting director of Bayern, Olise's contract does not contain a release clause.

Liverpool are interested in signing 23-year-old Bayern Munich attacker Michael Olise during the summer transfer window, viewing him as a potential replacement for Mohammed Salah. According to CFBayern, Liverpool have an interest in the French international. However, a potential deal is complicated because the player's contract does not have a release clause, a fact confirmed by German journalist Christian Falk. Bayern Munich are reportedly not interested in selling Olise and are expected to demand a high fee, which would make it difficult for Liverpool to convince the German club. Olise could return to England, where he previously played for Crystal Palace. Olise joined Bayern in July 2024, has a contract until 2029, and a market value estimated by Transfermarkt to be €130.00m. Real Madrid and Manchester City have also been linked with the winger.
