Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chelsea are rumored to be interested in Crystal Palace’s star midfielder Michael Olise. Liverpool is expected to enter the fight for him.

According to TEAMTALK, Olise is in high demand in the Premier League due to his spectacular performances and alluring release clause. This summer is going to be quite the race for him.

The trip that Michael Olise took to go from Reading to Crystal Palace was quite amazing. In 2021, he relocated to Selhurst Park for a meager £8.4 million. He has since grown to be one of Palace’s most valuable possessions. With 11 goals in 80 appearances and an impressive goal involvement rate of one every 2.8 games, his record speaks for itself.

There is a fierce competition to get Olise to sign. Chelsea came quite close to winning the contract last summer with a £35 million offer, and City also showed a lot of interest. Arsenal and Manchester United are also interested in Olise, seeing him as a crucial component of their squad reconstruction plans. As the Daily Mirror points out, Liverpool’s involvement into this contest adds even more excitement.

The fact that Liverpool is interested in Olise is evidence of Jurgen Klopp’s plans for the group. Olise might be most suited to Klopp’s Liverpool, a team renowned for developing youthful talent. Even if the rumored £45 million departure clause is more than previous estimates, it is still a good deal in the current market, especially when weighed against other high-profile additions. Come summertime, City, Chelsea, and other teams are probably going to be in the running for that amount. See if the reds are, we’ll see.
