Bayern Munich have moved quickly to shut down any speculation surrounding Michael Olise, with sporting director Max Eberl delivering a firm and unambiguous message about the club’s stance on the French winger.
Speaking to ZDF on Saturday, Eberl made it clear that the Bundesliga champions have no intention of entertaining any offers for the 23-year-old attacker. “Michael Olise is absolutely untouchable,” he said. “No chance, we didn’t think about it not even for a second.”
The statement comes amid growing attention around Olise following his impressive impact since joining FC Bayern Munich.
The club view him as a central figure in their long-term attacking plans, and Eberl’s comments were designed to end any transfer talk before it gains traction.
Michael Olise, who arrived with high expectations, has quickly established himself as one of Bayern’s most important creative outlets.
His technical ability, vision, and end product have made him a key part of the team’s forward line, and internally he is seen as a player around whom future attacking structures can be built.
By describing him as “untouchable,” Bayern are sending a clear message to Europe’s elite clubs: Olise is not on the market at any price.
It is also a reflection of the club’s current strategy under Eberl, focusing on stability and retention of core talent rather than being drawn into transfer speculation.
