Manchester United have made Crystal Palace midfielder their top transfer target for the summer transfer window, with United believed to be ready to smash their transfer record to sign the Frenchman. Talk of a £120 million deal have been suggested in the press this morning, for the player that very nearly joined Chelsea last summer.
Reports from ESPN suggest that Crystal Palace have even been given the opportunity to bring in Aaron Wan-Bissaka on a loan deal as part of any move to sign Olise, as the 22-year-old starlet plans his next career move after this season.
Chelsea could also return with a new bid for Olise, meanwhile Premier League rivals Liverpool have also been linked with a deal for the player.
With Antony failing to live up to expectations since his move from Ajax for £85 million, United are looking for alternatives and it is understood a transfer is the club's new hierarchy's top summer priority.
Olise came through Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City and Reading's youth ranks, and made his debut for Reading in 2019.
