Reading Coach Reveals Transfer Stance On Chelsea, Liverpool, Leeds United-Linked Midfielder Olise
Published: January 08, 2021
Reading coach Veljko Paunovic has reiterated that France youth international of Nigerian descent Michael Olise is not for sale amid speculation linking the midfielder with a departure from the club in the January transfer window.
The likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Leeds United and Leicester City are believed to be keeping tabs on Olise who is regarded as one of the most exciting teenagers outside the Premier League.
Olise has been involved in 12 goals (4 goals, 8 assists) from 22 Championship appearances so far this season.
Paunovic gave an update on the future of the French-Nigerian teenager in Thursday's press conference ahead of his side's meeting with Luton Town in the third round of the Emirates FA Cup.
"We're very happy with the progress of Omar and the relationship we are building and I'm hopeful we can have both - together with Olise - but we're not going to get involved in the rumours," Paunovic was quoted as saying by Get Reading.
"It's important how we feel about each other and if we want to continue working together and I think that is the case with all of them."
Olise is in the final eighteen months of his contract with Reading, whom he joined in 2016 after spells with the youth teams of Chelsea and Manchester City.
