“VWe are going to present an offer of 150 million euros for a player from a Champions team“. Florentino Pérez dropped a bomb in the middle of the electoral campaign in ‘Horizon‘, the program Iker Jimenez. The journalist specifically asked about the Bayern player Michael Olisebut the then candidate denied it. The offer was finally directed to Atlético by Julian Alvarez. The red and white club mocked on the networks.
But sometimes things are not what they seem. At this point, it seems evident that the offer for Julián was a bluffmore with the aim of complicating the Argentine’s signing for Barcelona (Florentino is being very belligerent with the Catalans regarding the Negreira case) than to be a real claim.
Goal by Mbappé (1-0) in France 3-1 Senegal
The shots, in fact, point to Olise, the great sensation of the season in the Champions League, protagonist of Bayern’s fearsome offensive trident (along with Kane and Luis Díaz), which meets several conditions that would make him the ideal signing for Madrid: Mbappé’s preferential partner (as seen in France’s first goal against Senegal), right winger (a position that is lame in Madrid) and with the charisma and sporting potential to combat the ‘Lamine effect’Barça’s great asset to take the last two Leagues from Madrid.
It won’t be easy. Bayern is not a selling club, quite the opposite. “If Florentino Pérez wants to send us an offer, which has not happened yet, you can save the work“, said Herbert Hainerpresident of the German club, when Olise emerged as Madrid’s option after Florentino Pérez’s announcement in ‘Horizonte’. The white club still has those 150 million well kept in the safe, but it seems evident that getting Olise out of Allianz will cost something more. Madrid, in fact, can raise the bid above 200 million euros, with a limit on the border of 220.
Olise shares passions with Mbappe
Obviously, the money is not infinite, despite Madrid’s healthy situation, Therefore, some important departure in the midfield is not ruled out for next season.. The defense is being shored up (Carvajal and Alaba have already left) and the forward is considered untouchable by the club, which believes that Mbappé, Vinicius and Bellingham They must continue to be the offensive lights of the team. Thus, everything points to names like Fede Valverde or Aurélien Tchouaméniin the spotlight after their double fight in Valdebebas that has highlighted both in the eyes of the fans. And with a good market in both cases.
Will that offer of more than 200 million be enough? If there is something evident in football, it is that players play wherever they want.. And Olise has a great supporter in Madrid. Not just any one. Kylian Mbappéafter becoming France’s top scorer, had only words of praise for his right winger. “With Michael it is super easy, because he is a player who always keeps his head high, with him you just have to think about offering him a solution, a passing line, and he sees it. I knew it and it was super cool“said the Madrid striker after the victory against Senegalwhich opened with a precise vertical pass from the Bayern player to enable the Madrid player. A natural and effective connection that was missing last season in Madrid.

Enzo, independent operation
Olise’s operation, Florentino’s great dream, is independent of that of Enzo Fernandezwhich is given a lower profile in the club. The Argentine’s desire to join Madrid is well known, as are his problems last season at Chelsea, where he was sidelined after a cheeky nod to the white club.. In Madrid they know that it will not be a cheap operation, but it is simpler than that of Olise, who will come up against the traditional pride of Bayern, which always makes the departure of its big stars as difficult as possible, and who, furthermore, can compete face to face with Madrid when it comes to proposing succulent financial conditions.
Different operations but, in short, underway, which aim to be the icing on the cake to Madrid’s ambitious project for 26-27. With José Mourinho as coach, three confirmed signings (Cucurella, Bernardo Silva and Konaté) and a fourth on the way (Dumfries), in the absence of at least two more signings to form a team that can aspire to anything.
