Overview
- Max Eberl said on Saturday that Bayern want to extend Michael Olise beyond his current deal but that no formal extension talks have yet taken place.
- Olise remains under contract with Bayern until the end of June 2029, giving the club time to open negotiations from a position of control.
- The France international has started the season strongly, with six goal contributions in early Bundesliga matches and a Champions League brace, which has increased his market value.
- Top clubs, most notably Real Madrid, have been linked to Olise in media reports that have floated transfer fees in the €200–€250 million range.
- Eberl warned a 'third party' complicates the picture and reports say Bayern have considered long-term offers while the player and his representatives seek an exit clause, so the next steps will hinge on when talks actually begin.
