The most assists in a season in Europe's top-five leagues this century as record-chasing Olise hits 30

Michael Olise has reached the latest landmark of his phenomenal campaign with Bayern Munich after recording his 30th assist of the campaign across all competitions.

The Frenchman has been the creative hub of Vincent Kompany's free-scoring side, who have obliterated theBundesliga's goal record on route to another German title.

Bayern have scored117 goals in 33 games ahead of their season finale against Köln today, with Olise having notched up 19 assists in the league alone. No player across Europe's top-five leagues has created more league goals than the 24-year-old.

Olise's assists in theBundesliga have come from only 23 starts, averaging an assist every 120 minutes in the league this season.

Olise has also now passed 30 assists across all competitions, becoming only the fourth player to achieve that feat this century.

Lionel Messi twice surpassed 30 assists at Barcelona (2011/12 and 2014/15), while Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne (2022/23) and 's (2015/16) have also achieved the feat.
