Michael Olise arrives at Bayern Munich 'to undergo his medical' as the Crystal Palace star nears big-money switch to Vincent Kompany's Bundesliga giants

Michael Olise has arrived for his medical at Bayern Munich, as his transfer from Crystal Palace nears completion.

His arrival at the Allianz Arena marks the near-end of a protracted transfer saga that has suffered setbacks since it started in June.

Olise, 22, will reportedly cost Bayern £49.5million and is set to become an integral part of new boss Vincent Kompany's first-team plans.

Kompany has been tasked with returning the German giants to Bundesliga dominance, after being toppled by Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen last season.

The pacy winger can provide Bayern with an incisiveness from the flanks, and importantly, the service star striker Harry Kane needs from their forward line.
