confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, It’s official – Pep Guardiola have agreed to pay the asking price for a world class £80 million English wonderkid, with medicals scheduled for next week. No long talks were needed as both parties were interested in a transfer, and a jersey number has already been discussed. Man City set to sign world class £80M star in a DONE DEAL – medicals next week
The 22-year-old Premier League star, according to Pearce, would succeed at Man City.
Pearce suggested Michael Olise to Manchester City as a potential signing.
Manchester United has previously acquired players from other Premier League teams. Mateo Kovacic, Jack Grealish, Matheus Nunes, and others have already done this.
However, a professional who formerly managed City has selected a Premier League player that he believes will mesh nicely with Pep Guardiola’s squad.
According to Pearce, Olise would succeed at City.
Pearce said this on talkSPORT when asked if he thinks Olise might play for a big team for the first time.
“I’ve seen him a few times recently, so the answer is yes,” he stated. Not United Manchester, but City of Man
Additional Manchester City stories: “I observed his play versus Chelsea. Even though he lost that match, in my opinion, he was the best player there.” It was all in the way he handled the ball and judged when to hold onto it.
“I could see him with a City shirt on.”
The 22-year-old reportedly attended City’s educational system for a year before transferring to Reading. Then in 2021, for an alleged £8 million, he joined Palace.
Since then, the Frenchman has participated in 80 games across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and assisting on 20 more.
Despite playing in just nine Premier League games this season, Olise has five goals, the second-highest number of crucial passes (20), and the highest number of shots created per ninety minutes (5.85).
Even though City leads all Premier League teams in goals scored thus far this year, it’s simple to see how the Palace player may mesh well with Guardiola’s group.
In April, Eagles head coach Roy Hodgson praised Olise as a “wonderful” talent and predicted a bright future for him. We believe that might occur for him in the future if he relocates to City.
