We have already seen quite interesting movements these days around Manchester United since the purchase of 25% of the club's shares by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, boss of INEOS, was formalized. They obviously try to talk about the changes expected in this historic English football game.

A decade without touching the Premier League is a great burden for those at Old Trafford, who urgently need changes to the squad. The first winter movements are already being seen, such as the return of Jadon Sancho to Borussia Dortmund, and there are other candidates to leave and enter.

But looking from a long distance, there is another player whom the Red Devils are already following with special interest, pending other movements. And they want to cast their nets on Michael Olise, a 22-year-old Crystal Palace midfielder who just yesterday was linked with eternal rival Liverpool.

Author of 5 goals in 9 games for the Eagles this season, he has a release clause of €58 million for next summer, according to the Evening Standard. That is why the Mancunians want it to be their first big bet in the summer of 2024.

How does Michael Olise play?

Olise is characterized by his ability with the ball, his speed, his dribbling and his shooting. He can play as a right winger, as a midfielder or as an interior player. His preferred foot is the left, but he can also use the right. He stands out for his scoring ability, despite playing as a midfielder. His physique allows him to join with skill from the second line. Additionally, he has great last pass ability.
