According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Manchester United are all champing at the bit to take advantage of FC Barcelona’s ongoing registration debacle with Dani Olmo.
But, how? Let’s explore:
Spanish youngster Dani Olmo could be the star of one of the most surprising moves in the upcoming transfer market. Despite joining FC Barcelona this summer for a fee of close to 50 million euros, the player could be set free as of January 1, 2025, due to a special feature in his contract that threatens to radically change the course of his career.
According to recent reports, Olmo’s contract includes a clause that allows him to be released from the club if he is not officially registered in LaLiga before the aforementioned date. The situation is complicated by the financial difficulties being experienced by the azulgrana side, which could prevent the player’s registration within the established timeframe. This scenario, if realized, would make the Spanish international a free agent, a luxury that several European giants will not want to miss out on.
Given that, the Bavarians are said to be firmly in the mix for the former RB Leipzig attacker:
Among the clubs that have already shown interest in the player are heavyweights such as Manchester United, Manchester City and Bayern Munich. Each of these teams sees Olmo as a unique opportunity to reinforce their squad with an elite player without having to pay a million-dollar transfer fee. In addition, his versatility in attack and his experience in both domestic and international competitions make him a highly sought-after signing.
However, FC Barcelona is seeking to resolve the situation before the deadline, which is rumors to January 1st:
For the Catalan club, the priority will be to resolve the financial problems plaguing the club and ensure that key players such as Olmo can be registered without setbacks. However, with the clock ticking and the deadline approaching, the pressure is mounting on all parties involved.
The outcome of this situation promises to be one of the most talked about topics in the coming months. If Dani Olmo is finally released, there is no doubt that the player will have multiple options to choose the next destination for his professional career.
Per 90Min.com, FC Barcelona’s latest registration appeal on Olmo was denied.
