Michael Olise Accusations: German Mother Claims Abandonment of Daughter

France and Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise is at the centre of serious off‑field allegations, with a German woman claiming he has failed to support or contact their young daughter despite, she says, acknowledging paternity after a DNA test.

The woman, 34-year-old Fatima Zaunbrecher, has gone public with her story, alleging that Olise is the father of her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, named Aaliyah Noor Olise, and accusing the player of turning his back on both financial and emotional responsibility.

‘He completely ignored it’

Zaunbrecher says she and Olise were in a relationship from 2022, lasting around two years. According to her account, she discovered she was pregnant shortly after they split. A DNA test, she claims, later confirmed Olise as Aaliyah’s father.

Speaking in a series of videos posted to her Instagram account, @fati.zahara, Zaunbrecher alleges that Olise has formally acknowledged paternity but has never met the child and has not, of his own accord, contributed to her upbringing.

She says there was an early attempt to put a temporary financial arrangement in place. Her former lawyer, she claims, contacted Olise’s legal team with a proposal for €2,000 in child support as an initial payment while the case awaited a full court ruling.

“I pretty much said you can do it through my former lawyer, who wrote to his lawyer that he can start paying, and I also sent it to my bank account, and he didn't send anything,” she said in one of the videos.

“I gave him a chance, but my child's father is savage; he didn't take it, and he completely ignored it. His lawyers are very terrible persons.”

Zaunbrecher says that since then, nothing has changed. No money. No phone call. No visit.

‘I’m raising our child alone’

The emotional core of her accusation is not just about unpaid support but about absence.

“I'm raising our child alone while her father is partying and inviting women and doing the most and is not paying any dime for his own daughter,” she said.

“Since that day, he hasn't paid anything, and he didn't call his daughter. But he said in the statement that he wanted to contact his daughter and me. That doesn't make any sense.”

Zaunbrecher insists her primary concern is securing stability for Aaliyah rather than policing Olise’s lifestyle. She says she is working two jobs to cover the costs of raising their daughter on her own, portraying a stark contrast between her situation and the image of a star footballer enjoying his off-season.

Olise on holiday after World Cup spotlight

Olise, who has just come off a high-profile summer with France, is currently on holiday. The winger played a key role as France finished fourth at the 2026 World Cup, where he delivered a tournament-best seven assists and underlined his status as one of European football’s most creative attacking talents.

Recent social media clips have shown the Bayern Munich man relaxing in Turks and Caicos, a world away from the legal and personal storm now gathering around his name.

On the pitch, his World Cup drew attention for different reasons too. Against Morocco, Olise found himself unable to join in France’s goal celebrations because of a little-known FIFA regulation: had the French players all left their positions to celebrate, Morocco could have restarted the game immediately. It was a small, telling moment of discipline and awareness on the field.

Off the pitch, the questions now are far more personal, and far less tactical.

As Zaunbrecher continues to speak out publicly and legal processes move in the background, the case threatens to shadow a player whose career trajectory has been sharply upward. How Olise responds — privately, legally, and perhaps one day publicly — may define as much about him as any assist or goal in the seasons to come.
