Liverpool can sign Michael Olise without breaching financial rules - top source

Liverpool have sufficient financial headroom to pursue Michael Olise from Bayern Munich, though a £100m+ deal hinges on Wirtz and Barcola's form improving first.

Former Everton CEO Keith Wyness has told Football Insider that Liverpool possess the financial capacity to sign Bayern Munich's Michael Olise, with the club having ample PSR headroom for a deal potentially exceeding £100 million. However, Wyness cautions that while affordability is not a concern, Liverpool should prioritise getting recent signings Florian Wirtz and Bradley Barcola performing before committing such a large outlay. Wirtz is still adapting to the Premier League after his 2025 move from Bayer Leverkusen, while Barcola has yet to register a goal or assist in four league games. Wyness views adding another elite £100m+ player as a "real gamble" unless the club's existing investments start delivering.
