Nike win the race to sign Bayern Munich superstar Michael Olise

Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise has reportedly agreed to a boot sponsorship deal with American sportswear brand Nike. According to a report by Footy Headlines, the French international had played without a boot sponsor for several seasons, instead wearing custom-painted vintage pairs of discontinued Nike Hypervenom Phantom III boots to coordinate with his team kits.

The partnership coincides with a planned revamp of Nike's boot lineup, which reportedly includes discontinuing the Phantom silo by 2027 to revive the Hypervenom series. Olise is anticipated to become the primary headliner for the relaunched boot, having reportedly tested a prototype while training with the French national team in June.
