Real Madrid’s dream of signing Michael Olise looks very difficult at this stage, with Bayern Munich showing no intention of opening the door for their French winger.
The in-form former Crystal Palace forward has emerged as a Galactico signing Florentino Perez is tracking, but it is very obvious that this deal is not going to be easy.
Now, according to Josep Pedrerol on El Chiringuito TV, Olise to Real Madrid has a very slim chance of happening.
He said, “Olise to Madrid? I’d give it a 10% chance. Negotiating with Bayern is very complicated”
It was previously revealed that Bayern are not open to negotiating and are instead pushing to renew the player.

That is the reality Madrid have to deal with. As much as they would like to sign the Frenchman, Bayern are not a selling club.
Bayern want to lock him down
The German club’s response is clear. Rather than entertaining Madrid’s interest, Bayern are working behind the scenes on a new contract for Olise, whose current deal already runs until 2029.
The idea is reportedly to make him one of the top earners at the club, with a salary of around €25 million per year.
There is another important detail. Olise’s camp have reportedly informed Bayern that there have been no talks, meetings or negotiations with Real Madrid so far.
A dream, not a realistic operation yet
From a Real Madrid and Jose Mourinho perspective, the interest makes total sense. Olise has creativity, speed, left-footed quality and the kind of final-third imagination that can lift a team.

That said, Los Blancos have to choose their battles this summer. A transfer worth more than €200 million would only make sense if the player clearly wanted the move and Bayern were willing to negotiate.
Right now, neither condition appears to be in place. The club are right to track him should a window open, but that seems unlikely this summer.
This transfer has the makings of becoming another long-term obsession, like Kylian Mbappe was when he was at PSG.
Bayern are firm in their stance, but do not be surprised if you hear Madrid linked with Olise repeatedly in the upcoming transfer windows.
