What happened: Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer has issued a firm hands-off warning regarding star winger Michael Olise, following reports of interest from Florentino Pérez. Hainer confirmed to BILD that the club has no intention of selling Olise, who remains under a long-term contract in Munich.
Why it matters: The declaration comes after a stellar season where Olise was named the Best French Player Abroad. By publicly dismissing potential bids, Bayern is asserting its status as a "non-selling club" and solidifying its roster after securing a domestic treble.
By the numbers: Olise dominated the 2025-26 season with 22 goals and 31 assists across all competitions. He led the Bundesliga with 19 assists and 15 goals, earning the league's Player of the Season award.
What to watch: Suitors must decide if they will test Bayern's resolve with a formal offer or look elsewhere for attacking reinforcements.
