Liverpool have reportedly made fresh enquiries over the availability of Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise, though he’s not available.
On top of that, it seems that if Olise is to ever leave Bayern his preference would be to move to one of La Liga‘s big two – Real Madrid or Barcelona, according to TEAMtalk.
Olise has been in superb form for Bayern this season and looks absolutely ideal for Liverpool to replace Mohamed Salah next season, but it seems a deal may not be realistic.
We’ve been told that LFC are working overtime on signing a top class Salah replacement, with Olise and Yan Diomande among their priorities.

Michael Olise looks unlikely to join Liverpool
Still, Graeme Bailey told TEAMtalk that, despite Liverpool’s interest, Olise is not available and would one day favour a move to Spain over a return to the Premier League.
Discussing the France international’s future, Bailey said: “Michael Olise is not leaving Bayern this summer. Munich are very clear.”
He added: “As I have been told previously, whilst he is not dismissive of interest, a move to Liverpool is not necessarily high on his list.
“I am informed that when he does eventually leave Bayern, Spain is the most likely destination – with Real Madrid or Barcelona – but that is not imminent.”
Liverpool need another big summer
Replacing a legendary figure like Salah was never going to be easy, but if they can’t get Olise then Liverpool could be in real trouble.
There aren’t that many other players out there who’d fit as well as Olise as an elite left-footed attacking player who provides high numbers of goals and assists from the right flank.
