Report – Bayern Munich speedster is Florentino Perez’s mystery €150m target for Real Madrid | OneFootball

The mystery surrounding Florentino Perez’s promised blockbuster signing may finally have an answer.

According to a report from The Telegraph, Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise is the player Florentino Perez is preparing to target with a sensational €150 million offer if he secures victory in the club’s presidential election.

The Real Madrid president recently generated huge excitement when he revealed that a record-breaking transfer proposal was ready to be submitted shortly after the election. 

While he deliberately avoided naming the player, clues provided during his media appearance immediately sparked widespread speculation.

Now, fresh information suggests the Bayern Munich star is the man at the centre of Madrid’s ambitious plan.

During his recent public appearance, Perez stated that the player in question was not competing in the Premier League, represented a Champions League club and possessed the level of quality expected from a modern Galactico signing.

Although he attempted to distance himself from Olise’s name during discussions, the aforementioned outlet claims the France international is indeed the primary objective.

The report states that Real Madrid are prepared to move quickly if Perez is re-elected, with plans already in place to submit a massive offer shortly after the vote.

It must be noted that Real Madrid have also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Joao Neves, but it is Olise who sits at the top of Perez’s transfer wishlist.

One factor that appears to be driving the interest is the strong admiration Jose Mourinho has for the Bayern winger.

The report outlines that Mourinho, whose appointment as Real Madrid manager is expected to be formally confirmed if Perez wins the election, has made it clear that he wants Olise as part of his project.

Despite all that, however, completing the deal will be far from straightforward because Bayern Munich are expected to resist any attempt to sign the French international. 

Olise remains under contract until 2029 and is regarded as one of the club’s most valuable assets.
