UEFA Champions League
Michael Olise has emerged as the true revelation of this early European football season, standing out above figures like Kylian Mbappé and Julián Álvarez, who had captured all the attention during the summer transfer market; the 22-year-old young Frenchman, newly arrived at Bayern Munich from Crystal Palace for 53 million euros, has shown outstanding performance that undoubtedly places him as the most productive signing of this period.
While the spotlight seemed to be on other big names, Olise has managed to shine on his own, becoming an essential part of the Bavarian team's attack, currently dominating both the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League.
In the six matches played so far, the French winger has scored five goals and provided three assists, an impressive feat that not only showcases his individual ability but also highlights the chemistry he has developed with his attacking partners, Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala. This offensive trio has established itself as the most lethal in Europe, accumulating a total of 29 goals so far this season; this figure speaks not only of Bayern's collective strength but also of the prominent role Olise has assumed in the team's dynamics. His adaptation has been instantaneous, something even the most optimistic would not have predicted, and his influence in games has been decisive in practically all the competitions the team has faced up to now.
Mbappé and Julián are not at Olise's level
In contrast, the high-profile signings of Kylian Mbappé by Real Madrid and Julián Álvarez by Atlético Madrid, while promising and with room for growth, have not managed to reach the impact level that Olise has had in this short period. Although both players have not disappointed in their respective teams, they are still far from matching the level that the Frenchman has shown with Bayern Munich. The team led by Vincent Kompany has unquestionably been the most dominant in European football at the start of this season, and much of that success is due to the outstanding performance of young Olise, whose ability to dribble, assist, and score has made him a key figure for the German club.
At just 22 years old, Olise seems destined to be one of the great figures of world football; his development under Kompany's guidance and his understanding with stars like Kane and Musiala only portend more success for him and for Bayern.
