Michael Olise whirls the competition dizzy at the start of the season. With him, Bayern’s offensive could hardly be stopped in the long term.
If it goes to Bayern icon Thomas Müller, offensive star Michael Olise will soon change in the footsteps of another Munich legend.
“He can become the player who is going for Bavaria in the future, as Franck Ribéry did in my time,” said the 35-year-old after his farewell towards Canada the “Sport Bild”.
Müller’s thesis had the taciturn French followed at the beginning of the season. With his overwhelming joy of playing, magic foot Olise protruded from the new magical square of the Munich team at the 6-0 festival of FC Bayern against RB Leipzig – and could shape an era a la ribéry.
Müller already saw Olise “from the way he appears and what he understands willingness to perform as an absolute service provider in the next few years”.
Both are fundamentally different, but the 23-year-old is “also a guy who clearly signals: ‘Give me the ball, I regulate that!’ So you can also lead a team without being a big loudspeaker. “
Investment pays off for FC Bayern
In fact, Olise is a whirlwind on the pitch, but after the final whistle but truly no man of big words. He prefers to let others talk about himself. “Michael is an exceptional player. He is exceptionally talented,” enthused sports director Christoph Freund about the tricky winger, who brought Bayern to the lead against an overwhelmed RB and also achieved 3-0.
The competition is likely to have run down the back with this performance – Olise in particular seemed unstoppable. On Wednesday in the 1st round of the DFB Cup third division Wiesbaden (8:45 p.m.), a new peat festival with Olise as a fixed point is only a matter of time.
Bavaria’s 57 million euro investment has so far paid off fully: in 57 competitive games he has scored 22 goals and prepared 23. Its market value is now 100 million euros.
At the end of the debut season after his change from Crystal Palace to the Isar, sports director Max Eberl raved about that Olise was “the player of the Bundesliga” for him. A few weeks later, much indicates that Olise will continue to be in the future – like legend Franck Ribéry.
