A report from Give Me Sport reveals that both Manchester United and Arsenal are making efforts to recruit Michael Olise from Crystal Palace.

Manchester United’s lineup needs reinforcement in several positions, especially in the attack. They lack a supporting striker for Rasmus Hojlund. They also require another quality winger, as Antony has been ineffective this season.

Olise could be an upgrade for the Brazilian player. The 22-year-old star from Crystal Palace has proven himself in the Premier League over the past few years, showcasing excellent breakthrough ability. Consequently, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is currently striving to sign Olise at the end of the season, amidst competition from Arsenal. One difficulty for these two clubs is Olise’s valuation at £65 million, a significant figure, especially as they are both affected by Financial Fair Play regulations.

At this time, the Gunners also need more quality and depth on both wings, as they are overly reliant on Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli. To compete for major titles consistently, adding the attacking star from Crystal Palace would be ideal. Olise is versatile enough to play as a right-wing midfielder as well as an attacking midfielder. He can provide additional goals and creativity for any team.
