Bayern Reaffirm Plan to Keep Michael Olise

The club says his contract to 2029 removes immediate pressure and gives Bayern time to manage wages, squad balance, transfer leverage.

Overview

  • Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen told reporters on November 5 that the club wants Olise to remain long term and that discussions over a new deal will take place when the time is right.
  • The club stresses there is no urgent need to reopen talks because Olise’s current contract runs until 2029, leaving Bayern in control of his immediate future.
  • Olise has become a key attacking player for Bayern after arriving for a reported fixed fee of €53 million, delivering goals, assists and creative influence that boosted his market profile.
  • Outside interest from elite clubs including Real Madrid, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain has pushed Olise’s valuation higher and earlier reports said his representatives sought a large release clause, issues that could resurface if formal negotiations restart.
  • By prioritising stability after completing Harry Kane’s extension, Bayern aim to protect squad harmony and wage structure while keeping the option to propose terms that limit future transfer risk.
