Olise has signed a five-year contract, securing his service to the club until summer 2026 and has been offered the new No. 7 jersey for next campaign.
Speaking to the media after his transfer, and Olise said new manager Patrick Vieira played a crucial role in his decision to join.
“I had a conversation with the manager and he was talking about how he sees me in the team: the plans, the development and the vision for the club,” Olise told Palace TV. “It’s very good, so I thought it was a good fit.
“It’s a big moment: Premier League football. The Premier League is known to be the top league in the world, so it’s definitely going to be a lot tougher. But nothing that I’m not ready for.” he said.
