FC Bayern celebrates its 35th championship – but one player stands out: Michael Olise’s appearance is a source of surprise
While there was an exuberant party atmosphere at FC Bayern after the 4-2 win against VfB Stuttgart, one player stood out in particular: Michael Olise. The 24-year-old kept a conspicuously low profile during the celebrations – and caused a stir among the fans in more ways than one
On the pitch of the Allianz Arena, the Bayern stars presented themselves in specially made championship shirts with a special design. But Olise, of all people, did not take part in this action. The attacking player was the only Munich player to remain in his regular match jersey and did not wear the joint outfit
Olise is missing from the championship photo
Olise’s behaviour did not go unnoticed on social media either: he was occasionally seen on the club’s official channels, but one detail in particular caused astonishment: the Frenchman was completely absent from the big championship photo in front of the south curve
The players, coaches and support staff had gathered there to celebrate the title in style. It is not yet clear why Olise was not present, and the club has not provided any further information
The combination of refusing to „swap shirts“ and being absent from the team photo quickly led to numerous speculations and questions among the fans
However, such behaviour is not a complete novelty with Olise. Since his move to FC Bayern, the attacking player has repeatedly attracted attention with his special manner. On the pitch he impresses with creativity and technique, off it he often seems reserved, almost aloof
A similar picture has already emerged at previous celebrations. For example, he refrained from having his picture taken with the trophy at a recent championship ceremony, preferring instead to occupy himself with his cell phone – and play a game of online chess.
