Manchester City is rumored to be interested in RB Leipzig’s Dani Olmo, with developments of a potential deal happening in recent hours. Olmo, who has been performing exceptionally in the European Championships, has scored three goals and provided two assists for Spain, helping them reach the final against England.

Club officials are reportedly in talks to secure Olmo’s signature immediately after the final this weekend. Manchester City is one of the teams continuously linked with the versatile attacking midfielder, and according to reports, they have emerged as strong contenders to sign him. The Premier League champions are said to be ready to trigger Olmo’s £50 million release clause before it expires next week.

While there is interest from other Premier League clubs and Spanish teams, Manchester City appears to be a frontrunner in the race for Olmo. The fate of City’s midfield, including players like Kevin De Bruyne and Matheus Nunes, remains uncertain, but the potential signing of Olmo could strengthen their squad for the upcoming season.
