Real Madrid are reportedly preparing a record-breaking bid for Bayern Munich forward Michael Olise as they seek to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season, according to a GOAL report published on June 30.
The proposed offer is expected to exceed the current world transfer record set by Neymar’s €222 million move to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, with performance-related bonuses potentially taking the total package beyond €220 million. If completed, the deal would make Olise the most expensive player in football history.
Olise has emerged as one of Europe’s most sought-after young attackers following a series of standout performances for Bayern Munich, earning praise for his creativity, technical ability and consistency at the highest level.
Despite Madrid’s interest, Bayern are reportedly unwilling to sell, viewing the French winger as a key part of their long-term plans and an integral figure in their attacking setup.
The move aligns with Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez’s strategy of recruiting elite young talent, with Olise understood to be one of the club’s top transfer targets as it continues to reshape its squad.
