According to a report, several top teams are scouting RB Leipzig’s attacking midfielder Dani Olmo. But his preference is to join FC Barcelona. Olmo is expected to leave RB Leipzig in the summer transfer window. While several top teams are scouting him, the 24-year-old attacking midfielder reportedly prefers a move to FC Barcelona. Manchester United is in the race to sign Olmo. But they need to confirm their Champions League place for next season to secure his services. Olmo’s contract with Leipzig runs until 2024.
It seems that Tottenham Hotspur also entered the race for Olmo. As reports from England suggest that the London club have already made contact with Leipzig to discuss a potential transfer. In addition, there were reports that Real Madrid also made initial contact with Olmo’s representatives. The player will be open to a move to the Bernabeu. However, it seems that Olmo’s preference is to return to Barcelona, the club where he began his youth career.
Will Olmo opt for the Premier League?
However Olmo is also open to exploring opportunities in the Premier League. Leipzig are willing to offer him a new contract. But if he refuses to sign the extension, they will listen to offers to avoid losing him for free in 2024. Olmo understands the situation and is said to be leaning towards a move to La Liga. However, reports suggest that Tottenham Hotspur already established contacts with Leipzig about the transfer. Also Real Madrid have also been linked with the Spaniard.
Indeed, Leipzig’s valuation of Olmo may fluctuate depending on various factors. Such as the club’s financial situation, their performance in the remaining matches, and the player’s performance as well. However, it’s clear that Olmo is a highly rated player. His versatility and attacking prowess make him an attractive option for many top clubs. It remains to see where he will end up. But his desire to join Barcelona could play a crucial role in the transfer negotiations.
Due to his versatility and playing style, Olmo has the potential to be a valuable addition to Barcelona’s squad in the upcoming season.
