Barcelona are set to make their first significant signing of the season, with a verbal agreement in place to bring Dani Olmo back to the club from RB Leipzig
The 26-year-old Spanish international will sign a six-year deal, with Leipzig receiving €55 million plus €7 million in add-ons.
Olmo’s impressive performances at EURO 2024 sparked interest from several top clubs, including Bayern Munich and Manchester City.
However, he prioritized a move to Barcelona, waiting for the club to make an offer.
The signing has divided opinion among Barcelona fans, with some questioning the transfer fee and Olmo’s position on the pitch.
With midfield options already available, some argue that the money could have been better spent elsewhere.
However, others see Olmo’s signing as a shrewd move, given his age and potential for future growth.
He will have opportunities to impress under Hansi Flick, particularly with several midfielders facing availability issues at the start of the season.
Dani Olmo’s desire to join Barcelona and his willingness to wait for the offer may also help to win over fans.
