According to Marca, Bayern Munich and France winger Michael Olise has become Real Madrid’s top transfer target, with the club considering the possibility of launching a record bid for the Bayern Munich star.
The France international is viewed internally as the ideal addition to bolster the attack, and the club could be prepared to invest upwards of €200m to secure his signature. During the recent presidential election campaign, Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez made headlines when he revealed that the club intended to make a €150 million bid for a player competing in the Champions League.
At the time, speculation centered around Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise, after the topic was raised directly during an interview. Convincing Bayern Munich to sell will be the biggest hurdle. The German champions have never been known to be a club willing to part ways with their quality players.
Bayern president Herbert Hainer previously dismissed speculation about Madrid’s approach, insisting that no formal offer had been received and indicating that the club had no intention of selling. As a result, Real Madrid realizes that any potential deal would require an exceptional financial package.
While the club still has money available from previous transfer plans, it is estimated that Bayern will only consider discussions with figures in excess of €200m but are limited to €220m.
