FC Barcelona are ramping up their pursuit of Dani Olmo as they face ongoing obstacles in their quest to secure Nico Williams.
After reaching personal terms with Olmo, who has agreed to a six-year contract with Barcelona, the only remaining hurdle for Barça is to finalize an agreement with RB Leipzig.
Recent reports have indicated that Barcelona’s most recent offer for Olmo got knocked down, but the Catalan giants are optimistic that they will soon land their target.
Barcelona face a race against time
Indeed, according to Sky Germany, on August 8, Olmo’s vacation comes to an end, and if Barcelona and RB Leipzig have not reached a complete agreement by then, the Spaniard will be required to rejoin training sessions with the Bundesliga club.
Determined to avoid this scenario, Barcelona are eager to expedite the negotiations to ensure that the La Masia graduate joins their squad promptly.

The club’s management is working tirelessly to finalize the transfer, aiming to integrate Olmo into the team without any further delays.
With Nico Williams leaning towards staying with Athletic Club, the Blaugranes recognize the importance of securing their other priority target.
Considering Olmo’s strengths as an attacking midfielder and his success in the most recent UEFA Euro 2024, Barcelona are eager to equip Hansi Flick with the Spaniard’s talents.
Barcelona hope to make major signing during pre-season tour
With August 8 serving as a potential deadline for Barcelona, one can expect that the signing could materialize during the Catalans’ ongoing pre-season tour in the US.
In fact, reports indicated that Barcelona plans to make a major signing during their tour. With the silence around Nico Williams, it seems likely that this signing could be Dani Olmo, provided the club can meet Leipzig’s demands.
