Man United told they’ll have to pay €60million release clause to trigger transfer for TOP Bundesliga Playmaker

Manchester United have been told they’ll have to pay RB Leipzig the full €60million release clause for Dani Olmo if they want to sign the Spanish attacking midfielder this summer

The Red Devils have been mentioned as one of the clubs linked with Olmo in recent times, but Fabrizio Romano has exclusively told CaughtOffside for his Daily Briefing column that Leipzig won’t be negotiating anything lower then the 25-year-old’s €60m clause.

This could be a lot of money for Man Utd to pay for Olmo this summer as they’ll surely also have other areas of their squad that require a lot of investment after such a poor season, though others might also argue that €60m for a player of Olmo’s quality isn’t too bad in terms of value.

Romano isn’t yet sure about the links with United, though he acknowledged the reports about them and others like Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

For now, it seems it’s too early to be mentioning specific clubs as no concrete talks are taking place yet, but Romano gave MUFC some potentially important information about what it would take to sign Olmo, who seems to have the opportunity to leave Leipzig this summer.

Discussing Olmo’s future, Romano said: “Dani Olmo is having a fine season with RB Leipzig and so it’s not too surprising to see media reports of top clubs like Manchester United, Barcelona and Bayern Munich looking at the Spanish attacking midfielder ahead of the summer.

“Still, it’s important to note that there have been no concrete movements yet, as far as I understand. Olmo could surely be one to watch this summer because there’s a release clause becoming active this year: €60m. This is the price for RB Leipzig – they have no intention to negotiate anything lower than that.

“But it’s too early to mention specific clubs now, as there are no concrete negotiations taking place, so we’ll see how this progresses in the next months.”
