Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise left France’s Olympic national team training camp at the weekend to undergo a medical inorder to complete a move to German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
In a video uploaded on X by transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano, the 2021 Super Eagles invitee was seen entering a red car after his arrival at the VIP terminal of Munich Airport.
Bayern Munich have pulled off a transfer coup with the imminent signing of the France U23 international, beating the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United to his services.
The €51 million release clause set by Crystal Palace for Olise will be paid by Bayern, with potential bonus payments of up to €5 million based on his performance.
If the quad-national player passes his medical with flying colours, he will put pen to paper on a five-year contract as a new Bayern Munich player.
Bayern were keen to sign Olise as they see him as the ideal winger to provide competition for Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry
Given that he will be playing for the French team in the Olympics from July 24 to August 10, it is unlikely he will take part in Bayern’s pre-season preparations.
A product of the Chelsea and Reading academies, Olise is set to depart Crystal Palace after registering 41 goals (16 goals, 25 assists) in 90 all-competition appearances.
