Real Madrid would submit a €150 million bid for Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise if club president Florentino Perez wins re-election this weekend, The Guardian reports. The 79-year-old incumbent is seeking another term against Enrique Riquelme and has pledged to offer that fee for an unnamed target; the report says Olise is actually the club’s primary objective despite Perez denying the winger was the focus in a recent news conference.
Olise, 24, moved to Bayern from Crystal Palace in 2024 for €60 million and has been a key player, scoring 42 goals and providing 54 assists in just over 100 appearances for the German club, the report adds.
Manchester United are increasing their scouting of left-back options, with TEAMtalk naming three candidates. Newcastle United’s Lewis Hall is reportedly the preferred target but carries an £80 million valuation that could hinder a move. Eintracht Frankfurt’s Nathaniel Brown is another option, though he has been linked with a move to Bayern, and Barcelona academy graduate Alejandro Balde remains a possibility amid uncertainty over his contract, which has two years remaining.
Bayern themselves are linked with several attacking targets. Christian Falk reports strong interest in Aston Villa playmaker Morgan Rogers, who is 23 and registered 14 goals and 12 assists in all competitions last season; Arsenal and Manchester City have also been credited with interest. Falk also says Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli is on Bayern’s shortlist, with the Gunners setting a €50 million price, though a move would present competition with Bayern’s current wide options.
Elsewhere, AS reports Real Madrid are tracking West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes, who has been given an £80 million valuation amid West Ham’s relegation. ESPN sources say Tottenham had an opening offer for Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke rejected—Brighton value him between £60 million and £70 million—Manchester City’s bid for Nottingham Forest’s Elliot Anderson was turned down, and Manchester United have agreed an initial £35 million deal plus up to £4 million in add-ons for Atalanta midfielder Éderson. Tottenham have completed the signing of left back Andy Robertson on a free transfer, the report adds.
