Insider denies Arsenal move for Chelsea player

Posted : 04 August 2023
Arsenal insider Charles Watts has addressed the speculation surrounding Michael Olise's potential transfer to the Emirates Stadium, asserting that it is unlikely to happen. 

While both Chelsea and Manchester City have shown interest in the talented Crystal Palace youngster to bolster their flanks, Arsenal seems less inclined to pursue the move.

With Chelsea considering Olise amid uncertainties surrounding Callum Hudson-Odoi and Hakim Ziyech's futures, and Manchester City eyeing him as a possible replacement for Riyad Mahrez, Olise's release clause of £35 million poses no financial obstacle for these two clubs.

However, if Olise were to move to Arsenal, Watts believes that competition from players like Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Martin Odegaard would place him lower in manager Mikel Arteta's pecking order, potentially limiting his playing time.

Furthermore, Olise's recovery from a hamstring injury sustained during the 2023 European U21 Championship will keep him out of action at the start of the 2023-2024 season, adding another layer of complexity to any potential transfer deal.

While the interest from top clubs highlights Olise's potential and quality, his immediate prospects at Arsenal may be limited by the presence of other talented players in similar positions. 

As the transfer window unfolds, the situation surrounding Olise's future remains intriguing for fans and clubs alike.
