Dani Olmo, who took part in the 2022 World Cup with Spain, is currently under contract with RB Leipzig. But the striker would be open, soon, to a departure from his club, to join his native country.
In a long interview with the German media PictureDani Olmo, who has been playing at RB Leipzig since 2020, revealed he would be “awesome” if he could one day return to his country: “Spain is my country, my league. (…) But I am not only linked to Spain. The most important thing for me is to play for a club where I feel loved and important. Like here in Leipzig. Now the discussions with Max (Eberl, the sporting director of RB Leipzig, editor’s note) will show how things will continue..
Asked about the possibility of returning to his training club, FC Barcelona, Dani Olmo answered in the affirmative: “I played there for six years when I was young. It will always be a home to me. Many of my national team friends play there.” That said, the 24-year-old Spaniard (12 games, 1 goal this season), said he was thinking first of all about his team’s next matches and the “three competitions to play” : “I’m under contract until 2024. I’m not thinking of leaving at the moment, only the next games. (…) Everything is going so fast in football, things can change all the time.”
FC Barcelona cannot recruit
If Barça therefore receives a small call from the foot of its ex-player, Dani Olmo, the Catalan club is not currently in a position to recruit. President Joan Laporta revealed it recently: FC Barcelona must have a successful season, from a European point of view, to recover a precious sum intended to reduce its financial deficit, which is currently 26 million euros. .
A tidy sum which seems to prevent any paid recruitment, and which opens the way to departures (including that of Memphis Depay).
