The latest signings of Real Madrid were revealed, where Bernardo Silva and Ibrahima Konate arrived at the Merengue club, being free signings due to the end of the players' contracts, being another approach to what they had in mind in signing Michael Olise from Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid sought to be the main and most relevant team within the transfer window, considering that they come from very negative seasons without lifting titles, they know they must now focus on signings that reinforce the squad, and the search was with Bayern Munich.
The rumor that the Spanish club went directly to sign Michael Olise was a bombshell that slowly faded away, thinking they could obtain one of the best players for a price close to €150M. However, this figure was not close to being able to obtain the French attacker.
Now, Jose Mourinho's club has had to go to the market in search of another approach in the transfer window, because they know that their ambitions set on obtaining great players like those from Bayern Munich will lead them to put a great price on the table, but they have desisted from this search.
Real Madrid Opted To Sign Free Players Rather Than Pay The Price That Bayern Munich Asked For Michael Olise
The latest signings of Real Madrid were revealed, where Bernardo Silva and Ibrahima Konate arrived at the Merengue club, being free signings due to the end of the players' contracts, being another approach to what they had in mind in signing Michael Olise from Bayern Munich.
These signings show how Real Madrid does not plan to generate as large an investment as Florentino Perez's statements suggested, in players like Michael Olise, who Bayern made clear is not for sale, but whose price would be more than €200M, or that of Julian Alvarez, where Atletico Madrid put a clause of almost €500M on him.
They had to go to the market in search of players who have finished their contracts and show them Jose Mourinho's project to attract them, thinking that it is very important to bring reinforcements for a team where the squad seems incomplete.
To compete in at least 60 matches per season, Real Madrid needs a competitive team and needs to expand their squad in every position, considering they are not in the best moment of their history despite having great names like Mbappe, Bellingham, or Vinicius Jr.
Bayern Munich, on the other hand, generated a certain rejection of Real Madrid in the search for Michael Olise. Still, surely for more players, there would be this rejection, as the value of the entire Bayern Munich squad is quite high, being something difficult for the Spaniards to pay.
Author's Take: Real Madrid's Decision Not To Seek World Stars Like Michael Olise Is The Correct One
Real Madrid cannot afford the luxury of seeking a high signing for more than €100M, although Olise would not sign for the merengue club, it is almost impossible that any player today will go to the Spanish club, thinking about the atmosphere the squad has off the pitch.
On Bayern Munich's part, the decision to NOT allow that there is any possibility of signing Michael Olise is correct; he is an untouchable player and they know he is the great future of this Vincent Kompany project, therefore it is not positive at all for the team to sell their best player for whatever price.
Next season will be highly competitive considering the reinforcements that each team is making and giving a focus to their projects where without a doubt that of Bayern Munich is more headed to conquer the UEFA Champions League than that of Real Madrid.
