European soccer champion Dani Olmo is reportedly on the verge of a transfer from Bundesliga club RB Leipzig to FC Barcelona. As reported by Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, a verbal agreement is said to be in place. The clubs are said to have agreed on a transfer fee of 55 million euros plus additional payments of 7 million euros. Olmo is said to have signed a contract until June 2030.
After an exit option for the fixed transfer fee of 60 million euros had expired, Leipzig had reportedly turned down lower offers from Spain and Manchester City. However, Olmo had indicated his desire to move. He is considered the transfer of choice of Barcelona's sporting director Deco and former national team coach Hansi Flick.
