Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira has raved about reported Arsenal target Michael Olise on the club’s official website for his performance against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at Selhurst Park in London in the Premier League this past weekend.
Vieira, an Arsenal legend, has said that Palace winger Olise is “growing”.
Palace played out a goalless draw with Liverpool at home in the Premier League this past weekend.
Olise, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal in the summer transfer window, was one of the best players on the pitch.
The Daily Mail reported in January 2023 that Arsenal are among the clubs who are monitoring the situation of the 21-year-old, who can also operate as an attacking midfielder.
Patrick Vieira on Arsenal target Michael Olise
Vieira said about Olise: “He was really important for us when we were in possession, and he created those opportunities for us. That was, I believe, one of his most complete games.
“Even defensively he was working really well. He was smart with the way he was defending. He is growing, and that’s really good for us.”
Impressive
In our view, Michael Olise is one of the best young players in the Premier League, and we are not surprised at all that Arsenal are keen on him.
Yes, the Gunners have some very good attacking players, but they could always do with more.
The France Under-21 international has been superb for the Eagles, and his progress has been very impressive.
Olise has made 17 starts and six substitute appearances in the Premier League for Palace so far this season.
The winger has scored two goals and given five assists in those games.
