"Chelsea" was very close to acquiring Michael Olise, but potential legal actions got in the way.

According to the English media, "Chelsea" withdrew from the deal because "Crystal Palace" started threatening legal action.

"Crystal Palace" believed that the "aristocrats" were unfairly trying to lure the 21-year-old Frenchman. Even before activating the buyout, the London club actively tried to attract the attacking midfielder.

"Chelsea" feared legal action and withdrew. Therefore, M. Olise signed a new four-year contract with "Crystal Palace" without a buyout clause.

The club owned by Todd Boehly in the market is now looking for an alternative to the Frenchman."
