Liverpool Are Set To Rival Manchester City For This Bayern Munich Winger: Dream Option For Olise?
Published on Sunday, 8 March 2026 at 8:06 am
Liverpool have entered the race to sign Bayern Munich’s electrifying winger Michael Olise and are prepared to go head-to-head with Manchester City for the Frenchman’s signature this summer, according to journalist Christian Falk.
Olise, 24, has been one of the standout performers in Europe this season, registering 13 goals and 25 assists in 36 appearances for the Bavarian giants across all competitions. His explosive displays on the right flank have marked him as one of the continent’s most coveted attackers and alerted the Premier League’s heavy hitters.
With a contract at the Allianz Arena that runs until 2029, Bayern are under no immediate pressure to sell, meaning any suitor will have to table a premium offer to prise the wideman away from Germany. That is unlikely to deter Liverpool, who view Olise as a potential marquee reinforcement for Arne Slot’s squad and a long-term successor to Mohamed Salah.
The London-born France international is no stranger to English football, a factor Liverpool believe would accelerate his adaptation to life at Anfield. Renowned for his close control, incisive dribbling and vision, Olise can torment full-backs in one-on-one situations while also crafting chances for team-mates. Equally comfortable cutting inside to unleash a powerful strike or drifting into central pockets as an attacking midfielder, his versatility adds another layer of appeal.
Securing Olise would significantly bolster the Reds’ attacking options and, at 24, he offers both immediate impact and long-term value. With Manchester City also circling, Liverpool’s hierarchy may need to act decisively to land a player who could help propel the club back into contention for domestic and European silverware.
