According to sources close to the deal, Liverpool will not be signing Michael Olise from Bayern Munich after all. The forward had been heavily linked throughout the window, but the deal is now dead in the water. Reasons for the collapse remain unclear, though it marks a blow to Liverpool's plans to bolster their squad. Talks broke down before a deal could be reached with Liverpool, leaving the door open for clubs like Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester City to step in. Liverpool have been strong going forward this season, with 50 goals scored in 31 games (1.61 per game). Michael Olise would give them depth and keep that attacking firepower going all season. Bayern Munich continue to be linked with Elliot Anderson, Castello Lukeba and Angelo Stiller while Liverpool are also rumoured to be tracking Josh Acheampong, Rayan Vitor Simplício Rocha and Caleb Marfo Yirenkyi.
