France coach Didier Deschamps praised Bayern Munich's Michael Olise, highlighting his skills and successful season with the club after moving from Crystal Palace. Deschamps noted Olise's intelligence and technical quality but addressed his need to toughen up, suggesting that the competitive atmosphere at Bayern is vital for his growth. Despite his praised performance, concerns about complacency arose due to a lack of competition for playing time at Bayern. Deschamps emphasized that with increased competition in the national team, Olise’s development trajectory depends on adapting his approach as he seeks further evolution in his career.
Michael obviously has a lot of qualities. He was one of the best players under Thierry Henry at the Olympics. He moved to Bayern from Crystal Palace and played a very good season there, scoring and assisting a lot of goals.
He has a bit of an introvert and reserved character - but I know that Vincent Kompany speaks to him a lot at Bayern. He's still at the beginning of his career and he has a very nice future ahead of him.
After a sensational inaugural campaign with Bayern Munich, Olise was showered with praise, but now he will have to seek ways to keep his evolution as a player going.
Will that hinder Olise from pushing himself to be all he can be - or will he take his time with France as a roadmap for how to approach his club situation moving forward?
