Real Madrid informed Hainer that they have held no secret talks with Olise behind Bayern's back:
"As I have said before, if Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez had this in mind, he can save himself the trouble, because we have no intention of selling Michael. Bayern has a very good relationship with Real, and accordingly, they reached out to me to clarify, first, that they have had absolutely no contact with Michael Olise, and second, that they do not want these kinds of media speculations to keep surfacing." Hainer stated.
Earlier on social media, reports suggested that Real Madrid was ready to offer over €200 million to land Olise, but it appears this is nothing more than media fiction.
Reminder: New transfer record! Bayern to sell Olise for a staggering sum!
