The Frenchman is one of the players who has created excitement among Madridistas after Florentino Pérez’s promises of a big signing. Still, it doesn’t look like he will be the big star signing for Real Madrid this summer.
Michael Olise no longer appears to be the big Real Madrid signing in this transfer market – despite all the attention he has received in recent days. The Bayern Munich winger was for a long time a hot candidate to trigger the promised €150 million loss from Florentino Pérez, but the interest has now cooled considerably. – After all, Perez has won this weekend’s election!

Denies Michael Olise to Real Madrid
Journalist Fabrizio Romano has lowered expectations around Michael Olise and a possible move to Real Madrid this summer. The Italian journalist claims that Bayern Munich have no intention of negotiating at all – not even if a bid approaches 150 million euros.
This message changes everything. What looked like a spectacular opportunity, instead starts to look like another name on an inflated wish list. Real Madrid need to strengthen the right wing – a position where the team has lacked both balance and continuous threat in recent seasons.
Michael Olise is a perfect fit in terms of age, talent and potential. But the transfer market is not solely governed by sporting needs or the buyer’s will. Bayern Munich see the Frenchman as a strategic piece – not a negotiating resource to balance the accounts or finance other signings.
Bayern Munich closes the door on the white big club
Bayern Munich’s attitude is rock solid. In Germany, it is emphasized that Michael Olise is part of the club’s future – not a sales candidate. Uli Hoeneß has been clear that it doesn’t make sense to sell him for even 200 million euros if it weakens the team sportingly.
This reasoning is completely in line with the club’s internal philosophy: To compete at the highest level, you have to keep the best players, not make them into sales objects. Real Madrid thus faces a wall. They can investigate, they can ask, they can prepare an offensive – but the answer already seems predetermined.
Olise has a long contract and has not given any signals that he wants to leave the German big club. He feels important, he has grown at the Allianz Arena, and he knows that his sporting status there is very high.
The need for a right winger is still unmet for Real Madrid
Real Madrid’s interest is logical enough. The right flank needs a specialist who can deliver dribbling, precise passing, and the ability to decide games. In that context, Michael Olise was an ideal profile to balance an attack that often leans too much towards the left side.
Florentino Pérez is looking for a signing of great importance – but also a player who fits into a squad that will reclaim major titles. José Mourinho’s arrival only adds to the need. The Portuguese relies on reliable, competitive pieces that are ready from day one.
Nevertheless, Fabrizio Romano’s warning forces Real Madrid to look for other options. It doesn’t help to have the money ready if the seller refuses to negotiate.

Real Madrid now have to make a choice: Should they keep their dream alive, or should they go for more realistic options to strengthen their attacking line? Fabrizio Romano’s statement carries weight, especially when it comes amid a flood of rumours and dampens the hype surrounding the Frenchman’s name.
At Chamartín, it is known that an operation of 150 million euros only makes sense if there is a small opening for negotiations. Right now, that opening is not in sight. Bayern Munich are standing firm and protecting one of their most valuable players.
Michael Olise will continue to be an attractive prospect for Real Madrid. But everything indicates that this summer will not be the moment when he puts on the white jersey.
