Chelsea has high hopes for landing Michael Olise this summer. Though Manchester United is keeping an eye on him as well, Chelsea seems more certain this time. Olise almost came to Chelsea last summer. His release clause was for £35 million back then. Chelsea started it, but Olise decided to remain at Crystal Palace and inked a new contract. There are conflicting reports about the new release clause in this new contract. If Olise wants to go, the bidding will begin at £60 million even if Palace does not want to sell him.
This summer, Chelsea intends to go after Olise once again. He seems like a great fit for their squad. Still, Palace is probably going to want more than £60 million. To obtain him, Chelsea would have to outbid Manchester United, Arsenal, and Aston Villa.
Chelsea Are Confident Of Signing The £60m Star
Olise’s wanted by Manchester United as well. They think their team would benefit much from having him. They cannot, like Chelsea, provide him Champions League football, however. Though it’s unknown whether Olise favors those clubs, this might make Arsenal and Aston Villa more appealing possibilities.
Olise will face extreme competition. Though Chelsea now has more confidence, they still need to be ready for a bidding battle. It will become clear in the following weeks whether they want to sign him and if they can stave off Manchester United and other interested teams.
It seems sense that Michael Olise would give Chelsea hope. They were almost there last summer and are committed to getting him this time. Potentially Olise is even more appealing, but there is fierce competition, particularly from Manchester United. The fact that neither team is playing Champions League football might influence Olise’s choice. Chelsea seems prepared for the task based on their resurrected confidence, but their capacity to outbid and outmanoeuvre their opponents will determine their success. This is a high-stakes game, and how it turns out will tell a lot about Chelsea’s influence and goals in the transfer market.

The gifted Ghanaian forward Mohammed Kudus, who plays for West Ham right now, has Liverpool’s attention. According to reports, the Reds may try to get Kudus for less than his prohibitive £85 million release clause. This option kicks in next summer, although Liverpool may take advantage of certain advantageous terms to negotiate a better deal this transfer season.
Liverpool has taken notice of Mohammed Kudus while they are ready to make lineup adjustments, especially with Mohamed Salah. There are rumors that Salah is being pursued by Saudi teams; even if they may not act this summer, it’s still a chance for next year when Salah becomes free agent. Liverpool is desperate to find a long-term successor given this possible change, and Kudus seems a good match.
Not easy to secure Kudus. This season, the Ghanaian has been in outstanding form, scoring and assisting 25 times for West Ham and Ajax, his previous team. His present release clause is £85 million, and his performance makes him a prized asset. But this provision only kicks in next summer, so Liverpool has time to bargain for a cheaper price right now.
