Arsenal and PSG to battle for £40 million-rated Crystal Palace forward who has been likened to Bukayo Saka

Crystal Palace star Michael Olise’s fine form under Roy Hodgson is not going unnoticed with PSG and Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal all strongly linked with the 21-year-old forward in the summer.

Michael Olise provided three assists when Palace thrashed Leeds United 5-1 over the weekend, taking his tally to eight and two goals in 29 Premier League games so far this campaign.

Having been tipped for great things when he first joined Palace from Reading in the summer of 2021, the winger has every ingredient to be a mainstay in a top team with speed, balance and a lethal left foot to pick a pass.

PSG have been widely reported to be a possible destination in the future with the forward currently a member of the France under-21 team.

According to football transfer.com, Michael Olise is an Arsenal fan and will jump at the opportunity to join the Gunners even though Palace are not under any pressure to sell their jewel this season.

It will take a fee in the region of £40 million to tempt the south London club who still have a three year contract with the forward.

Selhurst with some brilliant youngster

The return of manager Roy Hogson has brought life back to some of the exciting youngsters with Eberechi Eze, also signed from QPR and expected to blossom into a Premier League star looking unstoppable in his last two outings.

He scored a brilliant freekick to get Palace back into the game against Leicester before scoring in a slick passing move against Leeds United last weekend.

The Eagles will hope that they hold on to both stars and create a team that continues to excite the faithfuls at Selhurst.
