Bayern Munich chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen has declined to make any promises about Michael Olise’s future, after the France international was repeatedly linked with a summer move to Real Madrid.

Olise remains under contract with Bayern Munich until the middle of 2029. However, Dreesen’s comments have failed to end speculation over whether the 24-year-old could eventually leave the club for Real Madrid.

The Spanish club was among the teams most persistently associated with Olise during the summer. Those reports prompted questions about Bayern Munich’s plans for the forward and whether the club would be able to keep him beyond the current campaign.

Dreesen addressed the rumours but did not offer a firm guarantee that Olise would remain at Bayern Munich for the duration of his contract. His position leaves the player’s long-term future open to further discussion, despite the length of the existing agreement.

Olise’s deal with Bayern Munich is scheduled to run until mid-2029. That contract remains the clearest formal indication of the club’s position, but it has not prevented speculation about a possible transfer to Real Madrid.

Transfermarkt values Olise at 170m euros. The figure underlines the scale of any potential deal involving the player, although there is no indication in the report that Bayern Munich has agreed to sell him or that Real Madrid has made a confirmed offer.

For now, Olise remains a Bayern Munich player and is tied to the club for several more seasons. At the same time, Dreesen’s unwillingness to provide a promise over his future means the Real Madrid rumours have not been definitively dismissed.

The comments therefore offer no final resolution to the speculation. They confirm that the subject has been raised at executive level, while leaving the possibility of a future move open. Any decision would have to take account of Olise’s contract, his valuation and Bayern Munich’s stance, none of which changes the fact that his current agreement extends until 2029.

The original report contains no further details of Dreesen’s comments and does not state that a transfer is imminent. It only establishes that the Bayern Munich chief executive has discussed the rumours and has not committed himself to a specific outcome for Olise.

As a result, the immediate position is unchanged: Michael Olise is contracted to Bayern Munich until the middle of 2029, but the club’s chief executive has stopped short of guaranteeing that he will remain there for the full term. Real Madrid’s reported interest continues to provide the backdrop to the uncertainty surrounding the player’s future.
