Arsenal and Juventus are the latest clubs being linked with Crystal Palace’s quad national player Michael Olise ahead of the reopening of the transfer window.
According to Football Insider, Arsenal and Juventus have joined the race to sign Anglo-French-Nigerian-Algerian winger Michael Olise but face competition from Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United.
Despite an injury-plagued season that saw him miss the first three months of the campaign, the France U21 international has put himself in the shop window with a string of brilliant performances when available for selection.
He has directly participated in eleven goals (7 goals, 4 assists) in fourteen Premier League appearances this term.

Only Chelsea winger Cole Palmer has more goal involvements per 90 than Olise among players who have logged at least five hundred minutes in the English top-flight this season.
Chelsea and Manchester City were linked with a move for Olise last summer but the winger committed his future to the Eagles by putting pen to paper on a new deal until June 2027.
Joining Juventus, Arsenal or Manchester City would offer the Reading academy product the chance to play in the Champions League next season, while Chelsea and Manchester United remain in the running for European qualification.
Olise will soon have to make a decision on his international future, as he is eligible to represent the senior national teams of France, Algeria, England and Nigeria.
The 22-year-old was named on the standby list for Nigeria’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Republic of Benin and Lesotho.
