AliousMichael Olise could be one of the most in-demand players in the Premier League this summer transfer window after his excellent end to the 2023/24 season with Crystal Palace.
The 22-year-old French winger has continued to attract heavy interest from clubs about a potential exit from Selhurst Park, just one year after a move to Chelsea collapsed at the last minute.
In August 2023, Chelsea were confident of signing Olise after verbally agreeing personal terms and preparing to pay his £35 million release clause.
However, the transfer ultimately broke down, with Palace tying him down to a new contract until 2027 instead.
While that deal suggests Olise may prefer to stay with the Eagles for now, top clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham remain on alert about his situation.
When asked if he would prefer a move to Chelsea or Manchester United, reporter Alan Nixon stated “Prefers Palace just now.”
Palace manager Oliver Glasner has expressed hope that Olise and Eberechi Eze will continue at the club next season.
He praised Olise’s “brilliant” form, claiming he has found an ideal position after the winger’s four goals and three assists in the final six games helped secure a top-half finish.
Despite missing half the campaign through injury, Olise emerged as a key man for Palace down the stretch.
His enticing performances and potential make him one of the Premier League’s most coveted young talents this summer, even if his immediate preference may be staying at his current club for the time being.
