Dani Olmo responds to Barcelona transfer rumors

Dani Olmo appears to have confirmed that Barcelona tried to bring him back to the Camp Nou from RB Leipzig on deadline day.

There were rumors that Barca made a late move for Olmo after agreeing to let Antoine Griezmann leave but couldn’t meet RB Leipzig’s €75 million asking price.

Barca ended up moving for Luuk de Jong instead but there have already been more rumors the club will return for Olmo, possibly as early as January 2022.

Olmo has been talking about the speculation and said there wasn’t time to think about a transfer before the window closed.
