What Bayern Munich are doing to prevent their star player from joining Liverpool

Liverpool Eye Bayern Star Michael Olise, But German Champions Are Ready to Fight for Him

One of Bayern Munich’s standout performers has caught the attention of Liverpool, as the Premier League club begins to plan for the future.

Known for possessing some of the finest football talent in the world, Bayern Munich remain a dominant force in both domestic and European competitions. With stars like Harry Kane, Joshua Kimmich, Luis Díaz, and Michael Olise in their ranks, the Bundesliga champions continue their tradition of attracting elite players.

Since arriving from Crystal Palace, Michael Olise has quickly become a sensation in Germany. His impressive displays haven’t gone unnoticed, with Liverpool reportedly identifying the 23-year-old as a potential long-term successor to Mohamed Salah.

While Salah’s departure isn’t imminent, Liverpool are beginning to lay the groundwork for the post-Salah era. According to TBR Football, Bayern are taking proactive steps to secure Olise’s future at the club by planning a contract extension before the season ends.

As part of their retention strategy, Bayern are prepared to offer Olise a substantial wage increase, aiming to ward off interest from top Premier League sides. Notably, Olise’s current deal includes no release clause—an intentional move by Bayern to make any transfer more difficult.

Insiders close to the club suggest Olise is deeply integrated into Bayern’s long-term vision, with the club viewing him as a core part of their future plans.

The £60 million Bayern paid to sign Olise is already proving worthwhile, with the winger enjoying a stellar debut season—scoring 12 goals and providing 16 assists. His rapid impact has reaffirmed Bayern’s investment, and they appear fully committed to keeping him in Munich.
