Oliver Kahn tips Michael Olise for future world’s best title

Oliver Kahn has heaped praise on Michael Olise, insisting the Bayern Munich star is now performing at a level that could one day see him crowned the best player in the world.

The Bayern legend highlighted how, in recent weeks, Olise has gone from exciting signing to the heartbeat of the team’s attack.

Kahn pointed to both the consistency and the end product the Frenchman is delivering on the biggest stages. “If you look at his game in recent weeks, Michael Olise is definitely on the path to winning the Ballon d’Or,” he said, underlining how often the 24-year-old is deciding matches with moments of quality.

Olise’s numbers this season back up that belief. Operating mainly from the right and in central pockets, he has racked up 18 goals and 25 assists in 43 appearances across all competitions, a staggering return that places him among Europe’s most influential attackers.

With Bayern deep in the Champions League and fighting domestically, Kahn’s comments only add to the growing feeling that Olise is no longer just a rising talent, but a genuine contender in the game’s biggest individual debates.
