Mbappé Eyes Olise Transfer While Haaland and Others Move

Mbappé’s Wish for Olise at Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappé has publicly declared he would love to see Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise join Real Madrid. The French star describes Olise as one of the players who understands him best and constantly seeks his presence on the field. He adds that the winger can comfortably fit into a strike‑heavy lineup alongside a lethal goalscorer like himself. However, Mbappé also admits the move faces steep financial and contractual obstacles. Finding space for Olise within Real’s current squad is another challenge that weighs heavily on his mind.

Olise Has Not signaled Any Intent to Leave Bayern

Despite Mbappé’s endorsement, Michael Olise has said nothing publicly—or so it seems—about wanting to depart Bayern Munich. When he returns to Germany, he will likely be asked about the transfer talk, which could shed more light on his true feelings. Right now, there is no concrete indication that the young winger is pushing for a move. The lack of any private or public statement suggests he remains focused on his current club.

Haaland Rumours Quiet Down, Olise Likely to Stay

Real Madrid’s interest in Erling Haaland has also faded after a season of strong form and an average World Cup showing. Analysts note Haaland failed to prove his elite status in the semi‑final against Spain, leading to quieter speculation. The quiet rumours make it easier for Bayern to keep Olise, especially since he is not a World‑Cup champion. Insiders say the chances of Real signing Olise this summer are as slim as those for Haaland.

AC Milan Eye Former Manchester United Defender

AC Milan have added Manchester United’s Noussair Mazraoui to their shopping list under new boss Ruben Amorim. Amorim previously signed Mazraoui when he managed at Old Trafford, and the Rossoneri see the 28‑year‑old as a potential replacement for Aston Villa‑linked Pervis Estupiñán. Any deal is expected to hinge on Mazraoui’s willingness to push for a transfer, while United are reluctant to let him go. The defender’s age and experience could appeal to a squad looking for depth on the flanks.

Bayern’s Youth‑Focused Transfer Philosophy

Bayern Munich’s sporting director Christoph Freund continues to chase two 16‑year‑old talents that fit the club’s modern recruitment model. The success of Lennart Karl, a product of this approach, underscores the club’s belief in developing young players and later monetising them. Recent reports suggest Jonah Kusi‑Asare and Noël Aséko could be sold to fund purchases such as Givairo Read. This strategy of balancing development with smart sales is seen as key to staying competitive without over‑paying for established stars.

Liverpool Pushes for PSG Attacker Barcola

Liverpool remains determined to secure PSG’s Bradley Barcola this summer, despite clear financial hurdles. Barcola impressed during the World Cup, scoring six goals for France and helping the side reach the final four. The £70 million‑rated winger is viewed as a key target, though Liverpool’s sporting director Richard Hughes is keeping an eye on alternatives. With Spain looming in the semi‑final, Barcola hopes to start ahead of club‑mate Desire Doué and cement his status as one of Europe’s hottest prospects.

Schjelderup Attracts Top‑Flight Interest

Benfica’s 22‑year‑old winger Andreas Schjelderup has caught the eye of Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham after a solid World Cup run. The Norwegian international made six appearances, showcasing skill that has drawn squads from England’s top leagues. Despite having two years left on his contract, Schjelderup is open to a new challenge, with a €40 million price tag anticipated. Any move would require a substantial offer, but the interest signals his growing stature on the global stage.
