Real Madrid Denies Agreement With Bayern Winger Michael Olise

Real Madrid have denied reports linking the club with a move for Bayern Munich winger, Michael Olise, in the ongoing summer transfer window.

Naija News reports that the Spanish giants, in a statement released on Saturday, dismissed claims that they had reached an agreement on personal terms with the France international.

Recent reports had suggested that Olise and Real Madrid had agreed personal terms ahead of a possible switch to the Santiago Bernabeu.

However, Los Blancos described the reports as false, insisting that the club had not made any direct or indirect approach to the player, his representatives, or anyone close to him.

“In response to reports in various media outlets regarding an alleged interest from our club in Bayern Munich player Michael Olise, Real Madrid CF wishes to state that it has not had any direct or indirect contact with the aforementioned player, his representatives, or anyone in his entourage,” the statement read.

Real Madrid also stressed that they maintain a strong institutional relationship with Bayern Munich, adding that both European clubs have long operated on the basis of mutual respect and trust.

The club noted that it would not take any step capable of undermining its relationship with the German champions.

“Real Madrid also wishes to highlight the excellent institutional relationship it maintains with Bayern Munich, with whom it shares a long history of mutual respect.

“Both clubs have always maintained a relationship based on trust and mutual respect,” the statement added.

Olise, who joined Bayern Munich from Crystal Palace, has continued to attract attention following his impressive performances.

But Real Madrid’s latest clarification appears aimed at shutting down speculation that negotiations had already taken place between the club and the player’s camp.

The statement comes as top European clubs continue to strengthen their squads ahead of the new season.
