Michael Olise is staying at Bayern Munich. The French winger and his camp have directly communicated their commitment to the German giants during the Club World Cup, shutting down what had become one of the summer’s most persistent transfer sagas.

Bayern draws the line

Bayern Munich’s sporting director Christoph Freund has confirmed that Olise is non-transferable this summer. Uli Hoeness went even further, stating that Olise wouldn’t be sold even for €200M.

Reports had swirled throughout the summer transfer window about potential bids exceeding €150M, with Real Madrid among the clubs circling.

The timing of the confirmation is notable. Olise and his representatives delivered the message during the Club World Cup, a moment when players are surrounded by competing interests and maximum media attention.
