Olise’s Bayern Brilliance: The Wing Wizard Reshaping Europe’s Attack
30 October 2025
Olise’s Impact at Bayern
French-born Michael Olise has enjoyed a bright spell at Bayern Munich since joining from Crystal Palace last year.
The French international has been a central figure in Bayern's impressive start this season, helping the club win every competition so far.
Olise has featured in all 14 matches, tallying 7 goals and 7 assists.
The official TNT Sports X account highlighted the forward's massive contribution to Bayern's attack.
Since the start of 2025, he has created 29 big chances for teammates, the most of any player in Europe's top five leagues.
Rivals for big chances include Ryan Cherki, Mohamed Salah, and Federico De Marco with 18 each.
Lamine Yamal sits third with 17.
Since his move to Bayern in the summer of 2024, Olise has proven to be one of the club's best signings.
Across his first Bayern season he appeared in 55 matches, scoring 20 goals and providing 23 assists.
These numbers show he adapted quickly and became a key attacking cog alongside Kane and Musiala.
He can use either foot, posing a threat on both wings.
His style, weaving between lines with short, sharp passes, fits Kompany's high tempo philosophy.
Olise's real edge is his composure in front of goal and ability to decide at the right moment.
He has already proven decisive in Bundesliga and Champions League clashes.
With this trajectory, he could become Bayern's new star and perhaps the heir to Robben and Ribéry on the wings.
A remarkable rise.
From Reading in the English Championship to Bayern, the winger's value has surged thanks to constant development.
Transfermarkt data shows his value was about 2 million euros in 2020, rising to 10 million at Crystal Palace in 2021, then 27 million in 2023 after a standout Premier League season.
The big leap came with Bayern in 2024 as his value jumped to around 50 million by year’s end.
More recently, Transfermarkt pegs his value at 130 million euros, making him one of football's top-valued players.
This rapid ascent reflects his technical maturity and ability to adapt to different football environments, as well as Bayern's faith in him as a cornerstone of the club's future.
Today Olise is among Europe's most valuable wingers, with potential for further gains in the Champions League and Bundesliga.
Punchline 1: If he keeps this up, the ball might start asking for sponsorships just to keep up with his moves.
Punchline 2: And if you think the coach is impressed, wait until the scoreboard starts asking for his autograph.
