‘Won’t get him’: Bayern honorary president warns Real Madrid over Mourinho’s scouting mission for winger | OneFootball

Jose Mourinho is planning to make big changes to Real Madrid as he gears up for his appointment as the new head coach.

One of the big changes will be to bring in a star player to feature alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. Mourinho appears to have already found the answer in the form of Michael Olise.

Although Real Madrid have not been actively linked with a move for Olise this summer, the rumours have intensified after Mourinho was spotted in Berlin, watching the DFB Pokal final between Bayern Munich and VfB Stuttgart.

Uli Hoeness reacts to Mourinho’s visit

Heading into the cup final, Bayern Munich’s honorary president, Uli Hoeness, was asked about Mourinho’s visit to watch Olise, to which he didn’t hold back.

“José Mourinho is in the stadium tonight to keep an eye on Michael Olise for Real Madrid? He can keep 5 eyes on him, he still won’t get him,” he said (h/t Fabrizio Romano).

Hoeness’ comments do appear to be out of spite, especially considering Bayern Munich’s history of losing players to Real Madrid.

More than a decade ago, Bayern Munich lost Toni Kroos to Real Madrid, and the rest is history. David Alaba, too, left the Bavarian club to join Los Blancos in recent memory.

Jose Mourinho going after Olise could prove to be a masterstroke as the Bayern Munich star has been one of the standout players in Europe this season, racking up 22 goals and 30 assists in 51 competitive matches.

Olise could be the missing piece that binds together Mbappe and Vinicius in the Real Madrid frontline. He is also one of the best dribblers in world football and can be Real Madrid’s answer to Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal.

However, signing Olise will be difficult, with Bayern Munich not interested in selling their star man at all. So unless Real Madrid can engineer a massive coup, it is unlikely the Frenchman is leaving Bavaria anytime soon.
