Former Barca product Olmo admits Croatia interest as he eyes Spain debut

The former Catalan youngster concedes he was never conflicted over which country he wanted to represent

Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Dani Olmo insisted it has always been his dream to play for Spain, despite interest from Croatia.

Barcelona academy product Olmo joined Zagreb in 2014 and is eligible to represent Croatia, having not yet made a senior appearance for his native Spain.

However, the 21-year-old is in line to earn his first cap this week after being included in Robert Moreno's squad for the Euro 2020 qualifiers with Malta and Romania.
