Manchester United to scout Michael Olise in FA Cup?

Manchester United could reportedly send a scout to watch Michael Olise in action for Crystal Palace in Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final with Everton.

The 20-year-old has been in impressive form for the Eagles during the 2021-22 campaign, scoring four times and registering eight assists in 26 appearances in all competitions.

Olise has a contract at Selhurst Park until June 2026, but it is believed that his performances this term have led to a host of interest.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Man United could potentially watch the youngster when Palace take on Everton in the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon.

The report claims that Palace now value the attacker in the region of £24m and would be open to sizeable offers during this summer's transfer window.

Olise scored seven times and registered 14 assists in 73 appearances for Reading before making the move to Palace in the summer of 2021.

The former France Under-18s international has largely operated as a right-sided attacker for Patrick Vieira's side during the current season.
