Who is Fatima Zonbrischer? The woman who claims to have a secret daughter with Michael Olise

The France international faces allegations from his former partner, while his representatives deny claims that he refused support

Fatima Zonbrischer has become the center of attention after claiming she shares a daughter with Bayern Munich and France football star Michael Olise.

The 34-year-old German woman has spoken publicly about an alleged legal dispute involving child support, saying the player has not been involved in their daughter’s life.

According to reports from German newspaper Bild, Zonbrischer says she met Olise while he was playing for Crystal Palace in the Premier League. The pair allegedly began communicating on Instagram in 2022 before starting a relationship.

She claims they connected over their shared background, with both having North African heritage, and said their relationship developed after she travelled to London to spend time with him.

“He's half Algerian, I'm half Moroccan,” she explained. “They're neighbouring countries after all. He also dislikes large crowds and parties, just like me.”

Zonbrischer said their relationship lasted around two years before ending. She claims their separation followed disagreements, including allegations that Olise spent significant time playing video games and that there were issues involving another woman. She said she discovered she was pregnant roughly two weeks after their breakup.

Olise, who moved from Crystal Palace to Bayern Munich in 2024 in a reported £47.4 million transfer, has reportedly undergone a paternity test in Munich. Zonbrischer claims the test confirmed he is the father of their daughter, Aaliyah Noor, who is around 20 months old.

Following the reported paternity confirmation, Zonbrischer has alleged that Olise has not maintained direct contact with her or their child and has communicated through legal representatives instead. She told Bild that she was hurt by what she described as a lack of involvement from the footballer.

She claims Olise’s representatives initially offered €836 per month in financial support before increasing the proposed amount to €2,000. However, she alleges that she has not received payments for approximately two years.

Zonbrischer also claims that discussions became increasingly difficult because communication was handled through lawyers. She alleged that one legal representative suggested buying second-hand clothing for their daughter, a comment she found upsetting.

Olise’s legal team has rejected the accusations. His representatives reportedly stated that the player offered financial assistance from the beginning and remains willing to reach an agreement. They also claim that Zonbrischer sought €60,000 per month through French legal proceedings, a figure they dispute.

The controversy has emerged during one of the biggest periods of Olise’s football career. The 24-year-old enjoyed a major international breakthrough with France at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he finished as the tournament’s leading assist provider.

His performances have also reportedly attracted interest from European giants, including Real Madrid.

Despite the public attention surrounding the allegations, Olise has maintained a private profile and has not made a public statement about the dispute. Reports suggest his social media comments became flooded following the claims, leading to changes in his Instagram settings.
