Dani Olmo is going through a critical moment at Barcelona, where his prominence has decreased just when his leadership qualities were gaining more tradition on the field.
Dani Olmo, a shadow of his former self in LaLiga
The attacking midfielder was signed in 2024 with great expectations, with the club paying around 55 million euros to bring him in. Now it seems that his journey could end soon.
In the previous season, he shone with 10 goals in 25 matches in the First Division, solidifying his prestige in LaLiga. But this season, his participation has been more sporadic.
With only 354 minutes spread across six games, Olmo has scored a goal and provided two assists, a modest number compared to his aspirations.
Internal pressure: Fermín López challenges his place
The emergence of Fermín López has created tension for Olmo. The young midfielder has managed to gain the trust of Hansi Flick and quickly climb the ranks.
In some matches, Olmo was even a substitute when his team was leading, reinforcing the idea that his position is vulnerable.
The coach has emphasized freshness, intensity, and versatility in the midfield. In this scenario, Olmo is at risk of losing his structural importance.
Barça weighs income and potential departures
Sources close to the club estimate that Barcelona would be willing to entertain offers for Olmo next summer, aiming to generate a significant amount of income.
The European football market already lists him as a negotiable player, especially if offers come from countries like Germany or England.
Barcelona needs to balance finances and performance. The sale of a high-profile player like Olmo could be a strategy to free up sporting resources.
Proposal from the Premier League and other destinations
The Premier League is among the most feasible destinations for Olmo. Some English clubs have been monitoring his progress since his time at Leipzig and Zagreb.
A move to the UK would not only represent a competitive leap but also an opportunity to regain his sporting and market value.
However, Barcelona will have to consider the offer against the cost of losing an experienced talent. This dilemma will be crucial in the upcoming summer plans.
Imminent decision: continuity or reconstruction
Olmo must rediscover his best form before institutional decisions are made. His performance could change his fate if he manages to shine in the remaining matches.
But if his level remains modest, Barcelona may choose to sell him and invest in other players with recent success.
The Blaugrana club is seeking a deal that convinces: to keep him if no compelling offer arises or to negotiate from a position of strength if solid interest emerges.
Ultimately, this could be the season where Dani Olmo decides his future: to stay at Barcelona under new conditions or to embark on a different path seeking prominence outside LaLiga.
