Ex-Super Eagles call-up extends Crystal Palace deal despite competing offers

Posted : 17 August 2023
In a recent announcement on their official website, Crystal Palace has confirmed that Michael Olise, who was invited to the Super Eagles in 2021, has opted to extend his association with the club by signing a fresh four-year contract. 

Despite the strong rumors surrounding his potential transfer to Chelsea during the summer, Olise has chosen to continue his journey with the Eagles.

The young French talent, who also represents the France U21 team, has an interesting history with both Chelsea and Reading. 

Having begun his football journey with Chelsea, he later moved to Reading before eventually joining Crystal Palace in the summer of 2021. 

Reports had indicated that Chelsea had triggered a release clause of £35 million in Olise's previous contract with Crystal Palace, but with the signing of the new contract, his immediate future at the club has taken a different trajectory.

The decision to renew Olise's contract adds an element of uncertainty to the Chelsea transfer rumors. Crystal Palace's Chairman, Steve Parish, made the official announcement, confirming Olise's commitment to the club. 

The versatile winger's impressive performances in the Premier League have not gone unnoticed, especially his eleven assists last season, making him the highest assist provider in Europe's top five leagues among players aged 21 and under. 

His remarkable achievements were further celebrated at the Crystal Palace End of Season awards, where he secured the titles of Players’ Player of the Season, Goal of the Season, and Moment of the Season.

As Olise continues to recover from a hamstring injury sustained during his international duty with France at the 2023 European U21 Championship, his decision to remain at Crystal Palace speaks volumes about his dedication to the club and his desire to further develop his skills and contribute to their success on the pitch.
