Bayern Munich's Michael Olise stands atop Europe in chance creation
"Michael Olise is picking up right where he left off at Bayern Munich. Last season's Bundesliga rookie of the year is having an equally strong start to his second campaign, and already has seven goals and eight assists in the league after fifteen matchdays (he had 12 and 15, respectively, in all of 2024/25). But it's not just the contributions that end up in goals."
"Olise has been Bayern's chance creation monster, and in fact leads all players in Europe's top five leagues for the calendar year. The full list, as captured by Squawka: Michael Olise (Bayern Munich) - 36 Rayan Cherki (Manchester City and Lyon) - 27 Lamine Yamal (Barcelona) - 25 Federico Dimarco (Inter) - 22 Mo Salah (Liverpool) - 19 Álex Baena (Atlético and Villarreal) - 18 Jacob Murphy (Newcastle) - 17 Diego Moreira (Strasbourg) - 17 Lautrao Martínez (Inter) - 17 Declan Rice (Arsenal) - 17 "
