Madrid join Barcelona in race for Dani Olmo

Despite being involved in the fight for two titles - Champions League and the Copa del Rey - Madrid also have one eye on next season. The team are already defining the planning of the squad and the positions they are going to try to reinforce.

Regarding this point, the latest name that is being mentioned to join the 'Merengue' team is Dani Olmo. The Spanish international developed at Barca's youth academy and is on the Catalan giants' radar.

That is what 'Relevo' reports, which adds that the midfielder, whose contract expires in 2024 and who has not yet accepted a renewal offer, would welcome the option of joining Madrid this summer.

The aforementioned source points out that 'Los Blancos' believe that Olmo fits perfectly into the team's future project and that he can also provide versatility (he can also play inside and as a false '9'). The first contacts have been made to find out his contractual situation. The player's plan is to return to Spain and he knows that RB Leipzig will have to sell him if he does not extend his contract.
