RB Leipzig has come out to deny the alleged interest of a Saudi Arabian club in signing Dani Olmo, which is positive news for FC Barcelona, ​​which still has its hopes of signing the player this summer intact

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Dani Olmo's future continues to generate great debate. So far, it seems clear that RB Leipzig is willing to sell the player from Terrassa for no less than €60 million. At the same time, there is no doubt that the Egarense is of interest to several top clubs (FC Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, Manchester City). However, everything related to the departure of '10' from 'La Roja' continues to be enveloped in a significant climate of uncertainty.

At this point, there seems to be a greater consensus in all information sources that the Barça team is the best positioned entity in the 'race' to sign the former Dinamo Zagreb player. Given this, it has been commented that the Barcelona team would have already agreed on personal terms with the player and only the agreement with the Germans would need to be finalized. The Catalans would have presented a transfer proposal consisting of a fixed payment of approximately 50 'kilos', divided into installments, plus another €10 million in variables, to reach the sum requested by the 'Red Bulls' for the playmaker.

Al-Nassr, surprise guest in the 'race' for Dani Olmo?

However, apparently, the Germans have not yet responded to this latest offer, which has led to rumors about other clubs that could surpass Barcelona financially to begin to gain strength. In this line of argument, it was mentioned that Al-Nassr of Cristiano Ronaldo and company unexpectedly joined the race to obtain the services of the talented Barça youth player.

The possible participation of the Arab team in the dispute for Dani Olmo would have been a real headache for the Catalan team. Although Saudi football may not be the most attractive option from a sporting point of view, it is undeniable that they can tempt players and clubs with exuberant financial offers, which has led several stars to join their league.

RB Leipzig made it clear whether they are negotiating with Al-Nassr

Fortunately, for FC Barcelona and other 'big' European clubs interested in the Spanish international, the Arabs' interest in the footballer gives the impression of being just a rumor. In fact, the newspaper 'Al-Riyadiya' contacted official sources at RB Leipzig, who denied any contact with Al-Nassr.

"We are open to the departure of Dani Olmo, there is no problem in recognizing this point, since the player himself has expressed his interest. But we have not received any offer from Saudi Arabia, and more specifically from Al-Nassr", thus denying any possible transfer of 'La Roja' '10' to Arab football and maintaining the Catalan team's hopes of closing a transaction that would undoubtedly significantly improve the quality of the squad.
