Michael Olise has been linked with a move away from Bayern Munich after a standout 2025/26 season – and his performances for France at the World Cup have done little to quiet the speculation.

Real Madrid, widely reported as interested in the Frenchman, recently issued a statement making it clear they would first speak with Bayern officials before entering into any talks with the player himself.

Now, Kicker reports that not only the Spanish giants, but also reigning Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain are closely monitoring the attacker – in particular his displays for France alongside PSG trio Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola.

However, according to reports from France, Olise is said to be more interested in a move to Real Madrid.

Whether a transfer materialises this summer is highly doubtful, though, with Bayern planning with Olise and repeatedly insisting he is not for sale.

The 24-year-old is under contract until 2029, leaving Bayern in a strong negotiating position.
