Man United really Keen and pushing to Sign £50m-rated versatile Spain Playmaker ahead of Barcelona with club open to allow him leave this summer

Manchester United are interested in signing RB Leipzig’s Dani Olmo, who has a €60 million release clause valid until 20th July, according to AS.

Olmo, who was outstanding during Spain’s Euro 2024 triumph, had a stellar 2023–24 season with Leipzig, scoring four goals and dishing out five assists in 17 Bundesliga appearances.

As a result, elite teams have been vying for the attacking midfielder’s signature, with United reportedly among them.

The 26-year-old is eager to be sold by RB Leipzig during this window, but they are said to be difficult negotiators.

But if interested parties take advantage of Olmo’s release clause, which ends today, they can bypass these club-to-club talks.

The athlete is rumored to be eager to join an ambitious sports endeavor, which he will ostensibly put above other considerations.

Emerging through the prestigious La Masia academy, Olmo completed a shock switch to Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb at the age of 16. This is where he made his breakthrough in senior football, making 125 appearances across six seasons for the Prva NHL outfit.

Spanish outlet AS (via Sport Witness) report that the Red Devils have ‘entered the scene with force’ to try and sign the Terrassa-born man. INEOS want to provide Erik ten Hag with greater depth in these areas, and see the player playing minutes on the right, as well as pushing the likes of Bruno Fernandes centrally and Alejandro Garnacho on the left.

While United are unlikely to activate Olmo’s €60 million release clause today, they may initiate negotiations early next week.
