Dani Olmo a ‘sure bet’ signing for Barcelona
Barcelona made a last-ditch attempt to sign their former player and RB Leipzig winger Dani Olmo on transfer deadline day. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Catalans have already started working towards securing the services of Olmo in next summer’s transfer window.
The report adds that Barcelona were given permission to speak to Olmo in the summer and that the player agreed to join them. The deal has reportedly only been put on hold and the Catalans will make an attempt to sign him in January if RB Leipzig are open to the idea.
