Calendar of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona has put an end to one of the 'soap operas' of the transfer market. After some long and intense weeks of conversations and unexpected turns, Dani Olmo will wear the Barça shirt starting next season. The footballer became the priority of the Barça entity after Nico Williams decided to remain in the ranks of Ernesto Valverde at Athletic Club de Bilbao, and after some tough negotiations, he will return to Barcelona after a decade.

Deco, sports director of the Catalan institution, went to Leipzig this Tuesday in order to close the agreement that will take the midfielder to the Spotify Camp Nou. Together with Olmo himself and his representatives, Andy Bara and Juanma López, the Portuguese managed to 'unlock' the financial agreement between clubs and agreed on the transfer of the footballer in exchange for 55 million fixed euros plus 7 in variables, as reported by the transfer specialist journalist, Fabrizio Romano.

The payment structure for the signing is currently unknown, but the Barça offices would have had to reformulate it since this was one of the key conditions for the Red Bulls. The German entity intends to collect a good part of the agreed 55 'kilos' in advance and not in installments, since they need to have sufficient funds to find a replacement guarantee for the international with the Spanish team.

Olmo's contract

For his part, the Euro 2024 champion will sign a contract that will link him to the Catalan institution for six seasons, until June 2030. Olmo was 'desperate' to return home, which is why he ignored offers from other greats clubs like Bayern Munich or Manchester City to put themselves under the command of Hansi Flick in Barcelona.

In this way, Barça closes one of its main folders this summer, waiting for what may happen on the left wing, with the signing of Nico Williams almost ruled out. For now, the Blaugranas will prepare to celebrate the landing of one of the club's old wishes, whose greatest desire was to return to the club where he was born and which, after several days of uncertainty, has seen his dream finally come true. came true.
