How Bayern star Michael Olise can win the next Ballon d'Or
"The winger, who can also play as an attacking midfielder, managed 35 goal contributions in 51 appearances in his first season at Bayern in all competitions, with 12 goals and 15 assists coming in 34 Bundesliga appearances. Michael Olise impresses for Bayern and France This fantastic season saw Olise become an ever-present option in the France squad and has featured 10 times, scoring three goals and starting in four of his last six appearances for Les Bleus."
"Bayern Munich consistently win the Bundesliga, but just performing to a world-class level in your club's division and winning the title is proven not to be enough. This was emphasised by Liverpool's Mo Salah winning the Premier League last season. He managed to score 29 goals and pick up 18 assists in 38 appearances, but only finished fourth in the Ballon d'Or."
Michael Olise recorded 35 goal contributions in 51 appearances in his first Bayern season, including 12 goals and 15 assists in 34 Bundesliga matches. Olise featured ten times for France, scored three goals, and started four of his last six appearances. Olise finished 30th among 30 nominees for the 2025 Ballon d'Or despite a strong season. Ousmane Dembele won the 2025 Ballon d'Or after winning Ligue 1 and the Champions League with PSG, highlighting the renewed importance of Champions League success for Ballon d'Or contenders. Consistent domestic dominance alone no longer guarantees high Ballon d'Or placement. Olise needs further achievements and targets in 2025/26 to elevate his chances for the 2026 award.
