Spain Calls Up Highly Touted Dani Olmo for First Time
MADRID (AP) – Spain coach Robert Moreno called up 21-year-old Dinamo Zagreb attacking midfielder Dani Olmo for the first time on Friday for a pair of European Championship qualifying matches.
Olmo came up through Barcelona's training academy before joining the Croatian club. He helped Spain win this year's under-21 European Championship.
Olmo has also scored three goals for Dinamo in qualifying for the group stage of the Champions League, where he has added one more. Dinamo has one win, two draws and a loss in Group C.
Spain has already qualified for Euro 2020. It will host Malta in Cadiz on Nov. 15 and Romania in Madrid three days later.
