‘Drop the gimmick’ - Michael Olise labelled a ‘miserable f*cker’ after refusing to sing Jingle Bells in Bayern Munich singalong

Champions League

Feyenoord

Bayern Munich

<p>The £50 million signing from Crystal Palace was part of a festive club event where the squad posed for holiday photos and sang the classic 'Jingle Bells'. While his team-mates, including England captain Harry Kane, enthusiastically participated, Olise stood out for his lack of engagement.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>In footage shared widely on social media, Olise appeared disconnected, staring blankly at the camera as his fellow players sang with festive cheer. The moment quickly went viral, prompting mixed reactions online.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="sv" dir="ltr">digga Olise 😭😭 <a href="https://t.co/IuVGkL3Vr9">pic.twitter.com/IuVGkL3Vr9</a></p>— 𝙅𝙊𝙉𝘼𝙎 🌪️ (@M_TelMeMore_39) <a href="https://twitter.com/M_TelMeMore_39/status/1871238356212039990?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 23, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

<p>Despite the social media drama, Olise’s performances on the pitch have been nothing short of extraordinary. Since joining Bayern Munich five months ago, the 23-year-old winger has adapted seamlessly to life in the Bundesliga. The French international has contributed nine goals and nine assists in 23 appearances across all competitions. His stellar form saw him earn the Bundesliga's 'Rookie of the Month' accolade for October, cementing his reputation as one of the league’s brightest talents. He will return to action on January 11 when Bayern faces Borussia Monchengladbach.</p>
