Bayern Munich have confirmed the signing of Michael Olise from Crystal Palace on a five-year deal.
The confirmation marks the end of a protracted transfer saga that has been ongoing since it began in June.
Olise will serve as an integral part of new boss Vincent Kompany's plans as he looks to overhaul the side that finished second behind Bayer Leverkusen last season, ending a run of 11 consecutive Bundesliga titles.
Bayern are said to have paid £49.5m to secure the France youth international's services.
In a video shared on the club's social media, the 22-year-old donned the Bavarian side's famous red shirt.
