One of Bayern Munich’s biggest moves of the summer was signing Michael Olise away from Crystal Palace.
Former Crystal Palace forward Clinton Morrison thinks that the 22-year-old is going to do many great things at Bayern Munich.
“There’s not many who can replace Michael Olise, I think he’s a fantastic player. I would have loved to see him stay in the Premier League, but Bayern Munich has got a snip there. I was speaking to the chairman the other day and I was saying I couldn’t believe how cheap he’s gone with the transfer fee,” told Betway. “I know Olise is going to be a superstar, watching him at the Olympics at the moment he’s been fantastic for France with the goals and assists he’s producing. He’s just an outstanding footballer, so Palace will miss him.
“When a club like Bayern Munich comes along, the chance to win trophies, play in the Champions League and play with world class players like Harry Kane, then I think you have to go don’t you.”
Morrison also said that Olise was posed and ready to make the move to Germany.
“One million percent. The guy is full of confidence, the club asked me to hand out awards at the end of season and he’s just so laid back, which you see on the pitch. He plays with freedom, as long as they let him produce what he can do and Vincent Kompany looks after him, then I think they’ve got a real player there,” said Morrison. “He’s got the world at his feet; I think he can go and be one of the superstars of world football. I rate him that highly, I think his left foot is a wand. The only concern I have with him is the injuries, at Crystal Palace he had a lot of injuries but hopefully he can stay fit and have a fantastic season for Crystal Palace.”
