Real Madrid will reportedly not make a bid for Bayern Munich star Michael Olise unless he makes the first move. They want him to go public about his desire to leave the Bundesliga champions this summer.

According to Arancha Rodríguez, Real Madrid are keen on signing Olise, but are unlikely to launch a move. They want to maintain their good relationship with Bayern Munich and are not working on an approach.

However, they will pounce on any chance to sign the winger, as long as he makes a public statement about his desire to join them. The report comes just a day after L'Equipe stated that the Frenchman has told his entourage and national teammates that he wants to make the switch.

Los Blancos released a statement earlier this summer, saying that they were distancing themselves from all reports about a possible move for Olise. They repeatedly stated that the relationship with the German side was of respect and they did not wish to ruin it.

Los Blancos seem to be sticking to their word, but are still keeping tabs on the winger's plans.

Real Madrid are keen on bolstering their squad and see Olise as the ideal addition this summer. Jose Mourinho has reportedly asked for the winger, and Los Blancos are working on a bid.

Reports earlier this summer stated that they were ready to break the €222 million record fee and offer Bayern Munich a €190 million fixed fee, with another €33 million in add-ons.
