Michael Olise Stars in Bayern’s 2-1 Win at Real Madrid

Bayern signal long-term faith in the winger by ruling out a sale.

Overview

  • Olise drove Bayern’s attack in Tuesday’s Champions League quarterfinal in Madrid, setting up Harry Kane in a 2-1 first‑leg victory.
  • Match figures highlighted his influence with 82 ball actions and four dangerous shots that kept Real’s defense under strain.
  • Praise poured in across Europe, with Antonio Rüdiger, L’Équipe and Marca noting how he repeatedly unsettled left back Álvaro Carreras.
  • Thierry Henry, who coached him at the 2024 Olympics, said Olise reads the game early and attacks defenders with rare one‑on‑one skill.
  • Sporting director Max Eberl said Bayern will not consider selling Olise, while Steven Gerrard said the 24‑year‑old has no reason to leave a title‑chasing side, and his season stands at 16 goals and 29 assists in 41 games.
