  • Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly targeting Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise.
  • Olise, under contract until 2029, is reportedly not interested in leaving Bayern Munich this summer.
  • Bayern Munich considers Olise untransferable, making a move to PSG highly unlikely unless both parties agree.

Paris Saint-Germain has reportedly set its sights on acquiring Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise, a 24-year-old French international with 7 goals in 17 caps. However, the move appears to be a mission impossible, according to reports.

Olise, who joined Bayern Munich in 2024 for 53 million euros and is contracted until 2029, is reportedly not keen on leaving the German club this summer. He is currently with the French national team in Boston for the upcoming World Cup.

Bayern Munich officials have repeatedly stated that Olise is not for sale, particularly amid speculation linking him to Real Madrid. PSG, aiming to maintain cordial relations with Bayern, is unlikely to force the issue. Unless Bayern opens the door or Olise explicitly requests a transfer, his move to Paris seems improbable.

Olise has had an exceptional season, scoring 22 goals and providing 31 assists in 52 matches across all competitions. He recently scored a hat-trick for France against Northern Ireland.
