Michael Olise Next Club Odds: Man Utd Head The Queue For Palace Star
Article By
Last Updated: 
Michael Olise could be about to play his last few games for Crystal Palace, with the best betting sites anticipating plenty of interest in his signature this summer.
Olise came close to joining Chelsea ahead of the 2023/24 campaign, but Palace chairman Steve Parish persuaded him to sign a new deal at Selhurst Park instead.
That contract reportedly contains a release clause of £60m, making him an affordable option for the world’s biggest clubs.
Olise has endured an injury-hit season and his suitors will be concerned about the durability of his hamstring. But there is no doubting the France Under-21 international’s talent.
Despite missing large chunks of the season and being limited to just 10 Premier League starts, Olise has still managed to score seven goals and provide four assists.
Where will the former Reading man be playing his football next term? Let’s take a look at the contenders to sign him according to the betting apps.
Man Utd And Arsenal Favourites Nab Olise
Manchester United are the 9/4 favourites with football betting sites to land Olise.
Regardless of whether or not Erik ten Hag is still in charge beyond this season, United will be looking to bolster their ranks in the summer.
The time may have come for the Red Devils to cut their losses on Antony, for whom Olise would represent a significant upgrade.
With Jim Ratcliffe’s Ineos group now in charge of recruitment at Old Trafford, we should expect some more sensible deals.
Arsenal are next on the list at 5/1, as Mikel Arteta looks set to be backed again in the upcoming transfer window.
However, the fact that Olise operates best on the right - Bukayo Saka’s position, in other words - could throw a spanner in the works.
Liverpool And Paris Saint-Germain Level In The Betting
Liverpool are set for a summer of change as Jurgen Klopp prepares to depart as the search for the next Liverpool manager goes on.
His successor has not yet been chosen, but CEO Michael Edwards and his team have no doubt drawn up plenty of recruitment plans already.
Could Olise be on that list? It is possible. Mohamed Salah has not been in great form recently, leading to him being left out of the starting XI against Fulham last time out.
Olise could be a smart long-term replacement for Salah, allowing Liverpool to slowly phase the club legend out.
Both the Reds and Paris Saint-Germain can be backed at 13/2. Born in London, Olise has made no secret of his desire to represent France at senior level.
A move to Paris would do the 22-year-old’s profile in the land of his mother no harm whatsoever.
Chelsea And Manchester City Could Renew Interest
Chelsea attempted to recruit Olise last summer and for a while it looked like they had succeeded in their objective.
In the end, though, the winger concluded that his development would be better served by another season at Selhurst Park.
Chelsea is perhaps no longer seen as one of the most attractive destinations in the Premier League, with the Blues set to miss out on Champions League qualification once again.
As such, Mauricio Pochettino’s men are priced at 17/2 in this market.
Manchester City have also been linked with Olise in the past and they could renew their interest ahead of next term.
Jeremy Doku has had a good debut season at the Etihad Stadium and the addition of another out-and-out wide player could be on the agenda. Yet at 12/1, City are dark horses at best.
Newcastle And Tottenham Are The Outsiders For Olise
The odds on betting apps above suggest a move to either Newcastle (14/1) or Tottenham (16/1) is a long shot for Olise.
Due to the need to comply with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules, money could be tight at Newcastle this summer unless they raise funds through player sales.
Olise would arguably go into their first-choice XI, though, along with Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon in a front three.
If they have the cash, Newcastle could join the race to land the Crystal Palace wide man.
Tottenham are in a more favourable position in that regard, but Ange Postecoglou may have other priorities in the transfer market.
Olise would add some more unpredictability to their attack, but a more traditional centre-forward could be Tottenham’s principal attacking target.
