Olise named Champions League Player of the Week after Bayern heroics

Michael Olise has been crowned UEFA Champions League Player of the Week after a brilliant display in Bayern Munich’s dramatic 4–3 win over Real Madrid at the Allianz Arena.

The winger was instrumental on the night, capping his performance with an important goal that helped push Bayern into the semi-finals.

Olise finished top of UEFA’s fan and panel rankings for the week, beating strong competition from Ousmane Dembele of PSG, Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi, and Barcelona’s Dani Olmo. The recognition reflects not just one standout moment, but a complete performance full of creativity, composure, and end product on one of European football’s biggest stages.

His impact against Madrid underlined the growing influence he has within Vincent Kompany’s side and his rising status across Europe. In a round packed with high-quality performances, Olise’s blend of technical quality, work rate, and a decisive goal made him an obvious choice for the award.

For Bayern fans, the accolade is further proof that their star winger is becoming one of the Champions League’s most exciting attacking talents.
