Manchester United are reportedly considering a summer move for Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise, part of INEOS’ plan to revamp the club’s forward line.
Co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, overseeing a significant overhaul, sees the 22-year-old Frenchman as a key addition to Manchester United’s attack.
Olise, who impressed at Reading in the Championship before joining Crystal Palace, faced a potential move to Chelsea last summer.
However, a new contract at Selhurst Park saw him stay put. With a release clause set to come into effect next summer, Manchester United are eyeing Olise as a solution to their attacking woes. The Red Devils, struggling to find the net this season, view the French Under-21 international as a player capable of addressing their scoring challenges.
The club’s decision to postpone a January pursuit aligns with financial considerations, but plans for a summer rebuild are in motion.
With players like Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial, and Antony facing uncertainties, Olise emerges as a target to strengthen Manchester United’s forward line.
As INEOS takes control of football operations at Old Trafford, the reported £1.3 billion deal awaits Premier League clearance, signaling a potential transformative period for the club under the new ownership.
