Man City are monitoring the situation of Dani Olmo at RB Leipzig very closely but the Premier League champions are behind Barcelona in the race for the Spanish international.
The 26-year-old had a €60m release clause in his contract heading into the current transfer window but that expired last week. This will give interested parties more freedom to get a deal done as a lower fee may be agreed or the way the payments are structured will certainly help Barcelona given their financial issues.

The La Liga giants will have to increase their offer for Olmo if they want to get a deal done as their valuation of the midfielder is less than what the Bundesliga club are demanding.
Barcelona will want to get a deal done fast as other big European clubs are monitoring the situation with two being Premier League champions Man City and German giants Bayern Munich.
