German media 'Sport Bild' said on the 12th (Korea Standard Time), "Dani Olmo (25, Leipzig) wants a transfer. I prefer Barcelona as my next destination," he said.
Olmo left Dinamo Zagreb in 2020 to join Leipzig. Expectations were high for his performance as he scored 13 goals in 37 games in Dinamo Zagreb the previous season.
His performance was better than expected. Olmo melted into Leipzig without any particular adjustment period. Despite his first season, he predicted a prosperous future with seven goals and 12 assists in the 20/21 season.
The upward trend continued. Olmo drew the world's attention with a hat-trick in Germany's Super Cup match against Bayern Munich in August.
Now Olmo's eyes are looking higher. According to the report, Olmo wants to take on a new challenge through his return to Barcelona.
Olmo is well known for his background in the Barcelona youth team. After working for the age-specific team, he also played for the under-18 team until 2014.
The possibility of returning to Barcelona is not yet high. "Sport Bild" said, "Olmo is under contract with Leipzig until 2027. His buyout clause amounts to 60 million euros (about 85.3 billion won)," he pointed out. 슬롯머신사이트
Sixty million euros is by no means a small amount for Barcelona. Barcelona is struggling financially. It is highly likely that he will not be able to afford to pursue the return of Olmo right now.
