# Arsenal Enter Race for Bayern Munich Winger Michael Olise
According to a recent report, journalist Graeme Bailey stated that Arsenal are among the clubs hoping to land Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise. The report also notes the Gunners are facing competition from Liverpool, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Barcelona in the race to land the English playmaker.
Olise’s Impressive Numbers In German Football
Olise has been in great form for the Bavarian club this campaign, delivering a series of impressive displays in the final third. Across all fronts, the 24-year-old netted eight times and earned four assists in seven matches for Bayern Munich this season.

The France international ranks among the most feared wide players in the Bundesliga, so Arsenal being in the running to land him next year comes as no surprise.
His current contract at the Allianz Arena runs until the summer of 2029, which may prevent the Gunners from signing him on the cheap this January or at the end of this campaign.

Will Olise Be A Dream Option For Arsenal?
He is a solid dribbler with the ball at his feet and makes dangerous runs into wide areas. He possesses the eye to play decisive passes in and around the opponent’s penalty area.
He can shoot with power from long range and contributes goals and chances in the final third. While primarily a right-winger, Olise can fill in as an attacking midfielder if required. He already knows the Premier League well from his time at Crystal Palace and will not take time to adjust to life at Arsenal.
Olise can bring more quality and depth to Mikel Arteta’s frontline. He has what it takes to fight for a regular first-team spot at the Emirates Stadium.
At 24, Olise has his peak years ahead, making him a dream option for the Gunners to pursue in 2027. He will also help the Gunners compete for major trophies in the coming years.
