Manchester City is interested in signing Euro 2024 standout performer Dani Olmo, with Pep Guardiola having interest in him since last year. After Olmo’s heroics in Spain’s victory against Germany, Manchester City is considering signing him before his £50.6 million release clause expires on July 15. While clubs in England and Spain are closely monitoring the situation, RB Leipzig is willing to discuss selling Olmo even after the release clause deadline.
RB Leipzig will only sell Olmo if a club pays a fee that aligns with his fair market value, even after the release clause expires. Manchester City has not yet contacted the German club about making a move for Olmo, indicating that the race for his signature is still open. City have the flexibility to take their time in deciding whether to pursue Olmo and potentially pay more than the release clause amount to secure his services if he fits Guardiola’s plans.
Manchester City’s strategy in potentially signing Olmo involves carefully considering their options and not rushing into a decision. The club may choose to pay more than the release clause amount if they believe Olmo is worth the investment, rather than regretting not signing him later. The outcome of this transfer saga will determine whether City can secure Olmo’s services and outbid their competitors or wait and see how the situation unfolds.
