Liverpool are believed to be “in talks” over the signing of Bayern Munich superstar Michael Olise, with certain Reds players potentially part of the deal. Now, according to a respected source on X, the Reds are still pursuing the Frenchman, who is “keen” on heading to Anfield, with Cody Gakpo, Florian Wirtz and Rio Ngumoha mentioned as part of a swap: “Reliable sources indicate that Liverpool are in talks with Bayern Munich over a potential summer move for Michael Olise.

Olise is believed to be very keen on a move to Anfield.” Could Liverpool really sign Michael Olise in 2027? A wonderful player to watch, he also has a huge amount of substance in his game – he bagged 15 goals and 19 assists in the Bundesliga last season – and club and international teammate Dayot Upamecano has said of him: “He’s a magician.

He can score, set up, and even defend.” That said, Liverpool shouldn’t consider selling Wirtz for the time being, even though he continues to underwhelmed by the standards expected of him. He is also a main contributor for This Is Anfield, one of the world's biggest Reds-related sites, where he writes features and news, and covers matchday content.
