Dani Olmo’s dream was to return to Barcelona and Camp Nou and finally play “adult football” for the club played for as a youngster.
Barcelona, who still have financial problems, signed Dani Olmo on a transfer worth 55 million euros from RB Leipzig and got the 26-year-old signed up to play until the new year on a crisis clause.
An important point in Dani Olmo’s contract, which runs until 2030, is that he must be signed up to play in La Liga.
Mundo Deportivo that Dani Olmo can leave for free in the January window, if Barcelona do not put in place another financial lever. The “lever” this time is the sale of VIP Packages at the newly renovated Camp Nou for 200 million euros. If not, Dani Olmo, who loves being a Barcelona player, can go to a club for free, and like Kylian Mbappe, negotiate compensation for the buying club not having to pay a buyout.
Real Madrid, who signed Kylian Mbappe for free this summer from Paris Saint-Germain, are paying the French superstar an extra €150 million because he arrived for free. Mbappe scored one of the goals in yesterday’s Champions League match at Gewiss Stadium against Atalanta.
If Barcelona do not succeed with their lever, Dani Olmo will immediately after January 1st become a Bosman player.
Mundo Deportivo is strong in the belief that Barcelona will be able to get Olmo registered before the deadline, mainly because the day-to-day operations and results on the pitch are so good.
Barcelona will face Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League match at SIGNAL IDUNA PARK later today.
