Premier League star chased by Man City and Liverpool wants to join Man United
Michael Olise, a target for Manchester United, would like to move to Old Trafford when the transfer market reopens at the end of the season.
Olise is a player Man United may target for a purchase in the summer, as Sir Jim Ratcliffe plans to change the team’s recruitment approach.
Premier League opponents are putting pressure on the Red Devils as potential suitors are considering whether to activate the Crystal Palace winger’s release clause.
Reputable reporter Ben Jacobs is aware that Olise’s mind has been swayed by the prospect of going to Old Trafford.
Jacobs is aware that Olise may be leaving Palace in the summer, even though he signed a new contract there only a few months ago. By showing Man United that he is willing to move to Old Trafford if he takes on a new challenge, he has given the Red Devils new hope in fending off opposition to his services.
The transfer expert Jacobs knows that Ratcliffe is willing to approve a move for the former Reading star. He told GIVEMESPORT:
“Even though Olise signed a new contract in the aftermath of Chelsea failing to trigger his complicated release clause, there is absolutely no doubt that he is a potential 2024 departure.
“Manchester United’s old regime, before INEOS, really like Olise and he is tempted by the prospect of a move to Old Trafford as well.
“All indications are that Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS will endorse that move because, as part of their due diligence when coming into the football club, they were aware of any historical transfer plans that were for January – even though nothing materialised – and also any window planning for the summer.
“There is continuity between Manchester United’s current recruitment team and anything INEOS do. They like a profile like Olise, so he can be termed a concrete target ahead of the summer.”
After aggravating his hamstring injury during Palace’s loss to Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend, the 22-year-old has been sidelined for up to two months, which has dealt a blow to his attempts to win over more suitors. He had come on as a half-time substitute in an attempt to spark a comeback at the Amex Stadium.
Though limited to just 755 minutes of playing time this season owing to injury concerns, the French star has scored six goals and assisted three goals.
Reports have linked Olise to a move to United’s Premier League rivals Liverpool and Manchester City. The right-winger could spark a bidding war between the top Premier League clubs in the summer.
