Overview
- Reports citing L'Équipe and Goal say Bayern plan a new contract that would make Michael Olise the club’s highest‑paid player and likely add a release clause; those reports are unconfirmed by the club.
- Olise scored and was named Man of the Match in Bayern’s 5-1 opening‑day win, a performance captured in coverage on Friday that underlines his recent rise in form.
- Bayern CEO Jan‑Christian Dreesen told Sky Germany that the club is not currently in contract talks and sees no rush since Olise is under contract until June 30, 2029.
- Current salary benchmarks put Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala at about €2.1 million per month, a figure reports say any new Olise deal would need to exceed to make him top earner.
- If delivered, a large new contract with a release clause would change Bayern’s wage hierarchy and make it harder for clubs like Real Madrid to trigger a transfer without negotiation.
