Liverpool Target Bayern’s Michael Olise as Salah Successor, Bayern Talk Up Long-Term Deal

Bayern now stress they want Michael Olise to stay long term, tempering reports of a Liverpool move.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Liverpool have identified Michael Olise as a priority option to succeed Mohamed Salah and are prepared to offer more than €100 million.
  • Fichajes, relayed by several outlets, claims Bayern would seek around €150 million and have explored tying Olise down on a new contract potentially running to 2031.
  • Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund told Sky90 they feel no pressure and can envision Olise remaining for seven to nine more years, reinforcing the club’s retention stance.
  • Olise is under contract until 2029 and has started the season strongly, with five goals and six assists in ten matches in all competitions, bolstering his valuation.
  • Given Liverpool’s heavy summer outlay, some coverage flags cheaper alternatives such as Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo if a deal for Olise proves prohibitive.
