Michael Olise’s antics after dropping a masterclass for Bayern Munich against Werder Bremen have got fans talking.
Olise was one of the standout stars in the Premier League during the 23/24 season as he produced a string of impressive displays for Crystal Palace.
As a result, the Frenchman was linked with a host of different clubs in the summer transfer window including the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Paris Saint Germain and Arsenal.

However, in the end, the 22-year-old opted to move to Bavaria as he signed for Bayern in a deal worth a reported fee of £50.8 million.
On Saturday afternoon, Olise produced a brilliant display as he scored twice and assisted twice during Bayern’s 5-0 win over Bremen at the Wohninvest Weserstadion.
After the match, it was spotted that Olise, along with young star Jamal Musiala were conducting a post-match interview together.
However, according to BILD reporter Michel Schroer, Olise was not too keen to say anything.
Taking to social media, Schroer wrote: “Michael #Olise doesn't want to give an interview. But Jamal #Musiala encourages him, stands in front of the camera with him at the end and gives the answers for Olise.
“He doesn't say a word. Then Musiala jokes: "That's the start, Michael.”
Reacting on social media, one fan said: “He hates interviews.”
Another tweeted: “Does his talking on the pitch.”
A third fan added: “Olise just wants to play football and nothing else.”
Someone else wrote: “He’ll get more comfortable with the media. I’m assuming there is a language barrier too which can be rough. Musiala really acting like a leader here makes me so proud.”
A fifth commented: “Had to get some nonchalance back after showing emotions on the first goal.”
Another fan said: “The king doesn’t need to say words. He speakes when he plays.”
Speaking about Olise, Bayern boss Vincent Kompany said: “He's a special talent. It's a luxury at Bayern to have so many good players. Michael did very well. His start at FC Bayern couldn't be much better. He has to keep going this way.
“I haven't got the feeling that he's a player who feels much pressure. He just enjoys football.”
