  "account": "Bayern Munich is committed to keeping Michael Olise at the club, but Sporting Director Christoph Freund is not keen on generating unnecessary pressure regarding a contract extension. Speaking to Sky Germany, Freund commended Olise's development with the team, noting that he is currently one of the best players in the world. Olise's contract runs until 2029, which means there is no immediate urgency for the club to engage in discussions. Freund emphasized that Olise feels extremely comfortable at Bayern and that they are in constant communication with the player. The Frenchman's creativity, technical ability, decision-making, and ability to produce moments of magic have made him an indispensable part of the team. Bayern's long-term interest in Olise is evident, and the club would prefer to secure his future sooner rather than later. For now, the club can take a relaxed approach, but they are likely to prioritize a contract extension in the near future.",
