Man City’s Spanish Pursuit: Olmo the Target Amidst Barcelona Battle
Manchester City have thrown their hat into the ring for Spanish sensation Dani Olmo, with reports suggesting they’ve tabled a bid to rival Barcelona’s pursuit of the RB Leipzig star. Olmo’s stellar performance at Euro 2024 has made him a hot commodity in the transfer market.
Barcelona, who have long been linked with the versatile attacker, have already made a significant offer but have been met with resistance from Leipzig. Their initial bid of €33.7 million upfront and add-ons has reportedly angered the German club.
Journalist Santi Aouna claims City are determined to secure Olmo’s signature and have submitted a formal offer. However, the player himself is believed to favor a move to La Liga, and his agent is set to meet with Barcelona officials this weekend. The Catalan giants face financial hurdles and must offload players before they can finalize any deal.
With both Premier League and La Liga heavyweights vying for his signature, the battle for Dani Olmo promises to be one of the most intriguing transfer sagas of the summer.
Will Man City’s financial power trump Barcelona’s allure for Olmo?
