Barcelona ready to meet Dani Olmo asking price after having 'insulting' opening bid knocked back by RB Leipzig

Barcelona are closing in on signing Dani Olmo this summer as they agree to meet RB Leipzig's asking price.

After seemingly missing out on signing Nico Williams from Athletic Club, Barcelona are now determined to land another Spain international Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig this summer. Per Sport, Blaugrana sporting director Deco has already submitted a second bid worth €50m (£42m) fixed + €15m (£12m) after their initial offer was deemed 'insulting' by the German club.

The Catalan side's present offer is higher than Leipzig's asking price for the player which is set at €60m (£50m) and therefore they remain confident that a deal will be agreed upon very soon so that the attacking midfielder can join Hansi Flick's squad before the start of the upcoming 2024/25 campaign.

I hope this time Barcelona can really get it. You don't need both, just one of them. Be it Dani Olmo or Nico Williams. But it seems like the reason Nico Williams is still doubtful about Barcelona is not because he doesn't want to play at Barcelona. but it seems he is worried about the financial condition of the Barcelona club. That's what I read in the news media recently. (Sourch)
I hope Dani Olmo doesn't become as hesitant as Nico Williams. And the good news is that it seems Dani Olmo is really interested in joining Barcelona. But the competition to get this player could become more difficult because several other big clubs are also trying to get this player.

[naira]

I did see both teams field their main players with the same capacity, but everything went seriously and AC Milan managed to win this match, yes even though this was just a friendly match AC Milan looked very solid in the pre-season and of course Real Madrid was not so serious in the friendly match because they would be dangerous in the official match, but talking about the match earlier Milan was actually stronger even though Madrid also played Courtois Rudiger and many other names, but they still did not play well enough and in my opinion Madrid deserved to lose in this match.

I thought in this match they would field Mbappe but in fact they didn't, and if only Mbappe played I think the victory would be on Madrid's side because Ancelotti did not field his senior players in the attack line they only played Endrick up front and in fact he was not good there, and in this match Madrid also gave a chance to their new players and Guler how is he doing this season will he be loaned I think that is Ancelotti's main goal in this match, because basically this friendly match is to find young talent not to prioritize victory, yes especially Real Madrid they will not be serious if it is not a match to compete for the championship title.

Real Madrid first preseason match against AC Milan could only be enjoyed in the first half because after entering the second half almost half of them were replaced by academy players so the game was no longer clear. Arda Guller and Endrick tried to show off but unfortunately they couldn't perform 100% consistently. That doesn't matter because overall I admit AC Milan performance was much better than Madrid in this match.

Wasn't it confirmed from the start that Mbappe was not included in Ancelotti plan for preseason? So, if you expect Mbappe to take to the field for preseason, you will be disappointed. Mbappe is prepared for the Super Cup Final against Atalanta, so don't expect him to play in preseason. Unless Ancelotti changes his mind and wants to see Mbappe play against Barcelona.

Real Madrid lost their first pre-season match against Inter with a very narrow score (1-0). However, this is not surprising because in that match Real Madrid did not field many of its main players, but only fielded the majority of its second tier players. Even though Modric played in that match, he was not strong enough to bring Real Madrid to win the match. Because Modric is now old, his performance is not as good as before. Apart from that, if you look at the squad that Milan fielded in this match, you can see that many of Milan's main players were also involved in the match. So it is natural that Milan won this match, because the players they fielded were also far superior to the players fielded by Real Madrid. Actually, Milan should be able to score more than one goal in this match, but it seems that Real Madrid's second tier players are making things quite difficult for Milan.

To be honest, I was surprised that Real Madrid lost to Milan, even if Real Madrid did not field their best players in this match, I didn't expect them to lose unless the game ended in a draw. Well, I didn't watch the game, but based on the highlights, Milan players attacked more than Real Madrid, and they had a chance to score more than one goal. AC Milan dominated the match more than I expected because Real Madrid used their second-tier players to defeat several of the top teams in La Liga last season, so I assumed Milan would be an easy opponent to beat. However, Modric is already old and we should not expect much from him, he cannot perform at a great level without Bellingham and other key players who he is comfortable playing with. I wanted to bet on Real Madrid as the favorite to win despite the odds, but I forgot, and the match did not turn out as expected.

Real Madrid will play against Barcelona in their next friendly game, and I don't think it will just be a preseason game, I believe we will see another El Clasico before the season begins. I hope Ancelotti uses his best players in that match, since if Madrid loses, Barcelona fans will believe they can compete with Real Madrid next season.

[Frankolala]

Endrick has such a big media support behind him though. You must have noticed it during his introduction to the fans at the stadium and so on as well. I hope he doesn't stay under the expectations and proves himself to everyone in time. He has just turned 18 years old. Yamal, Arda Güler and now Endrick... The number of talents in the La Liga is increasing every year and it makes me look more confident to the future. 

August 15 is the day the new seasons begins by the way. I'm looking forward to watch Mbappe before anything else. I'm curious how long it will take him to adapt. I don't expect it to be too long honestly.

Mbappe will not have difficulties adapting with the team because he has all the best players around him making it easy for him to always find the back of the net. He will not be doing much job compared to when he was in PSG that the whole goal scoring thing on relying more on him.

In Real Madrid Bellingham, Vini can also score goals which makes me feel Mbappe will not ha e any challenge. If you look at it in Europa, he couldn't do well from what I heard that ambappe complained Pogba is not on the pitch to assist him.

I also think that Mbappe will have no problems at Real, first of all because he really wanted to become a Real Madrid player, his cherished dream came true, and in fact I think that he must give his all in every match to show his best game, not only because he wants to have a place in the team, but because he will do it with great desire. Ancelotti knows how to take care of the high spirit in the team, to some extent he even has friendly relations with the players, this is another factor that will contribute to Mbappe's better adaptation at Real.

I haven't been enjoying watching them this preseason because they haven't put the new players they've signed on the roster. Real Madrid did not put up much effort in the encounter, and AC Milan outperformed them. Ancelotti did not field key players in the games, so they capitalized on opportunities and scored goals. I believe you are correct that Ancelotti is holding Mbappe for the Super Cup because he does not want him to be injured during the preseason. It is a good idea for him to start his match in the Super Cup final, and I am confident that Real Madrid will win. Because Atalanta is no better than Real Madrid in terms of experience, let the league start soon and see what Mbappe will do in the pitch. Real Madrid fans are confident that they will win the Liga and the Champions League since they have signed Mbappe and the team is stronger than before. I believe Mbappe will earn us our first trophy with Real Madrid after winning the Super Cup.

It is unlikely that Mbappe will not be able to adapt well, surely Mbappe will be able to adapt well because it is true what you said that he is surrounded by players who do have guaranteed quality and also under the tutelage of Ancelotti who is also guaranteed to be a coach who is beyond doubt. Mbappe must be able to show his talent at Real Madrid because it is a very good opportunity with him having joined Real Madrid.

Mbappe can be a goal scoring machine for Real Madrid. Real Madrid without Mbappe already has a goal scoring machine and with Mbappe, of course Real Madrid has an additional goal scoring machine and this can make Real Madrid even stronger in its front line. There is no doubt whatsoever for Mbappe not to be able to play well, it makes no sense if Mbappe plays badly at Real Madrid.

No team would dare to use the main squad full time in pre-season match, even for big team, they would definitely think twice if they were going to do it and of course it would be stupid of the coach if it happened because it could be very risky.
But in this match I was quite happy when I saw Real Madrid using Arda Guler, Modric and also Rudiger because they would be able to help Real Madrid game to be able to perform optimally even though they only played in half the match.
AC Milan managed to dominate the game but Real Madrid also showed that they were able to match AC Milan with players who might only be second-string players.

If with the main squad then it is clear that Real Madrid will easily beat AC Milan, for the line-up of players who are mostly not core players I predicted it would end with Real Madrid victory for score of 1 - 2, but unfortunately it failed.

Actually, Milan should be able to score more than one goal in this match, but it seems that Real Madrid's second tier players are making things quite difficult for Milan.

Yes, of course in the pre-season matches, of course Real Madrid lost because their key players didn't play much and if for example many of Real Madrid's key players played, I'm sure Milan would lose. However, before the match started, I estimated that if, for example, Ancelotti did not field many key players, of course there would be great potential for Milan to win, but of course the match result of 0-1 indicates that these two teams are certainly strong teams.

Of course Modric is not like before and now his performance is good but not as good as before and of course in this match I saw that Milan players were more strong but of course Real Madrid's defense was strong too and in terms of attack I saw that Real Madrid was very good and of course repeated Milan had difficulty stemming Real Madrid's attacks.

Yes, the point is that both teams have good players and I see Real Madrid's shortcomings, of course in terms of exploiting opportunities when they are close to the enemy's goal. Real Madrid players cannot take advantage of them well. Yes, the point is that there are still a few shortcomings that Ancelotti must correct.  and of course I'm sure that in the next friendly match Real Madrid will face Barcelona and I'm sure that in that match Ancelotti will definitely fix Real Madrid's shortcomings, especially the second tier players and I'm sure Real Madrid will perform better when they face Barcelona.

[MAAManda]

This is a really serious form of ultimatum from Barcelona, ​​which could make Nico Williams constantly think about an offer from Barcelona. The transfer market in La Liga is still open until early September, I think we'll still see drama in this transfer saga. Nico's performance at the EURO was really good, what's more, he was a player who could partner with Lamine Yamal at that time, so that's probably what made Barcelona continue to pursue Nico Williams contract.

I've been hearing rumors of Nico Williams signing for PSG for a while now but there's another possibility that Barcelona are considering a move for the player. Big clubs are talking about this player mainly because of his impressive performance in the Euro tournament. The age of Nico Williams is very young and Barcelona already has Lamine Yamal, so if Nico Williams can be brought to the Barcelona team, then Barcelona can make a good eleven with these two young players.

We have seen a good relationship between Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams on the field so these two players will definitely do well at the club as the understanding between these two is much like Neymar and Messi. 

If Nico Williams is interested in coming to Barcelona then Barcelona should bring him to Barcelona and strengthen their squad.

Not only Barcelona & PSG are currently interested in Nico Williams, 2 other clubs Arsenal & Chelsea also sound interested in him, making Barcelona's journey to get his contract more difficult.

The reason is that his performance at the EURO with Lamine Yamal is a reasonable reason that makes Barcelona want to get him immediately and join him at Camp Nou. But I heard the latest news that Nico Williams looks like he will reject all the offers currently available to him in order to play at least one more season at San Mames.

Nico's family does have a special relationship with Bilbao, that may be a strong reason Nico will not go anywhere in this season's transfer window.

Real Madrid's loss in the friendly match It's really surprising that Real Madrid lost 0-1 against Milan. Today in this friendly match, the Milan team gave a wonderful game, they scored a goal in the 55th minute and won the team with that goal. There was enough of a fight between the two teams from start to finish but Real Madrid though tried to level the game but could not succeed. Although in today's match, the young stars did not play for Real Madrid, because of which they could not formalize today's match well, because of which they lost. I have long believed that in the next matches Real Madrid will play with their young stars and the game will be better. As they lost today's friendly match against Milan, but maybe they will be more tough to face all the other teams in the next matches. Real Madrid will definitely give their best performance, maybe they didn't win today's match against Milan, but they will definitely do better next time.

There are 2.5 players from Real's main squad here, so there is no reason to be surprised by the result. I think that in the next games Ancelotti will check the condition of the main players - we will see them on the field. Real will soon (August 14) play in the European Super Cup against Atalanta and should be ready for this game.
Although I am sure that even for this game no one will force the players to get into peak shape.

[Rampagoe004]

Endrick has such a big media support behind him though. You must have noticed it during his introduction to the fans at the stadium and so on as well. I hope he doesn't stay under the expectations and proves himself to everyone in time. He has just turned 18 years old. Yamal, Arda Güler and now Endrick... The number of talents in the La Liga is increasing every year and it makes me look more confident to the future. 

August 15 is the day the new seasons begins by the way. I'm looking forward to watch Mbappe before anything else. I'm curious how long it will take him to adapt. I don't expect it to be too long honestly.

I agree with you. There are many young stars who will play in La Liga next season. This will make La Liga very interesting to watch. And I hope to see the same rivalry as in the Messi Ronaldo era. I think El Classico is not as exciting as a few seasons ago. Even though I think this is one of the best rivalries in football. Yamal, Mbappe, Guler, Endrick, and Nico Williams are wonderkids in La Liga. If Nico Williams joins Barcelona I think we will see El Classico again like a few years ago.

[Richbased]

Endrick has such a big media support behind him though. You must have noticed it during his introduction to the fans at the stadium and so on as well. I hope he doesn't stay under the expectations and proves himself to everyone in time. He has just turned 18 years old. Yamal, Arda Güler and now Endrick...

August 15 is the day the new seasons begins by the way. I'm looking forward to watch Mbappe before anything else. I'm curious how long it will take him to adapt. I don't expect it to be too long honestly.

Literally, Endrick Felipe is a fast rising young player that's the reason for the huge media support and Carlo Ancelotti praised the talent, devotion and energy of the Brazilian striker in their friendly debut against AC Milan so possibly the young player may make his way to Madrid's first XI because for the fact that Ancelotti was able to observe his speed, resilience and his agility means he has made some impressive display that caught the attention of the coach.

However, the La Liga has produced young talented players in recent years, no wonder the Spanish teams have also experienced huge success in international matches and considering the fact that Lamine Yamal who is 17 years old is also doing some wonderful jobs at Barcelona and now Endrick is also in a good picture for Real Madrid so indeed we should expect an Epic competition in the La Liga this season.

For Mbappé, everyone is already curious to watch him play and a lot is expected of him ever since he joined the Madrid squad, I don't think it will take him long to master the pattern of play of the Madrid team so he's gonna adapt easily.

Barcelona ready to meet Dani Olmo asking price after having 'insulting' opening bid knocked back by RB Leipzig

Barcelona are closing in on signing Dani Olmo this summer as they agree to meet RB Leipzig's asking price.

After seemingly missing out on signing Nico Williams from Athletic Club, Barcelona are now determined to land another Spain international Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig this summer. Per Sport, Blaugrana sporting director Deco has already submitted a second bid worth €50m (£42m) fixed + €15m (£12m) after their initial offer was deemed 'insulting' by the German club.

The Catalan side's present offer is higher than Leipzig's asking price for the player which is set at €60m (£50m) and therefore they remain confident that a deal will be agreed upon very soon so that the attacking midfielder can join Hansi Flick's squad before the start of the upcoming 2024/25 campaign.

https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1818944397360128079?s=19

I think Leipzig recently rejected that offer. They were not satisfied with it.



You can take a look at Diario's report here. If Barcelona can put more upfront, it is understandable. The problem is Barca's recent terms are too much. Also, Leipzig is unhappy with the total amount offered by Barcelona.

It's time for Barcelona to know when to walk away from Olmo. This is pretty obvious; Leipzig is not keen on letting one of the top performers in Euro 2024 leave at a cheap price.

[rendravolt]

Endrick has such a big media support behind him though. You must have noticed it during his introduction to the fans at the stadium and so on as well.

August 15 is the day the new seasons begins by the way. I'm looking forward to watch Mbappe before anything else. I'm curious how long it will take him to adapt. I don't expect it to be too long honestly.

Today is his first 45 minutes playing in Europe and it is natural that we cannot expect more from a player who is still very young. At least his mentality is maintained even though in the match against Milan today he was not so good and as soon as possible he must make progress so that he can find more chemistry in his game.

Endrick's journey is still very long and how to see his teammate, Arda Guler, also had quite a hard time at the beginning and had to train his game more so that he could be in sync with the other players. Anyone who comes to one of the big clubs in La Liga like Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​​​of course, will not escape the media's discussion and that will make his name even bigger and it all depends on their next performance.

La Liga will start in two weeks and that's not a long time, my friend, especially lately we know that one day feels so fast and in the blink of an eye that day will soon arrive and we can see the game of all teams, especially for a player with a transfer saga for years or commonly nicknamed the French turtle Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid will definitely give their best performance, maybe they didn't win today's match against Milan, but they will definitely do better next time.

In a friendly game, you don't expect much from players and coaches. Players will not give their best because of the fear of injuries, while coaches will have to test diverse strategies. I am not surprised they lost the game considering the quality of players coach Carlo Ancelotti fielded. He decided to mix some young players with experienced ones. I am even surprised that AC Milan won the match, scoring just one goal. Looking at the statistics Milan was the better side and deserved to win. Congratulations to Nigerian Striker Samuel Chukwueze for that goal. He had endured an average performance since he moved from Villarreal to Italy. Hopefully, this season will be better for him. Milan has won all their games in this pre-season, and they will face Barcelona and Monza.  Real Madrid will meet Barcelona and Chelsea before playing with Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup.

I hope this time Barcelona can really get it. You don't need both, just one of them. Be it Dani Olmo or Nico Williams. But it seems like the reason Nico Williams is still doubtful about Barcelona is not because he doesn't want to play at Barcelona. but it seems he is worried about the financial condition of the Barcelona club. That's what I read in the news media recently. (Sourch)
I hope Dani Olmo doesn't become as hesitant as Nico Williams. And the good news is that it seems Dani Olmo is really interested in joining Barcelona. But the competition to get this player could become more difficult because several other big clubs are also trying to get this player.

Barcelona cannot force to recruit both of them at once due to financial factors, now Barcelona is starting to focus on recruiting Dani Olmo from Leipzig because the process of recruiting Nico William is considered very complicated. Hansi Flick really wants Dani Olmo because he can play in different positions, Flick can play Olmo in the wing and midfield positions, of course maintaining Olmo abilities can make Flick job easier. Barcelona interest in Olmo is not one-sided, the player is also very interested in joining Barcelona. Barcelona have made an internal agreement with the player, next Barcelona just need to open talks with Leipzig to reach an agreement.

[karabiber]

Hansi Flick will have difficulty to improve Barcelona defense if he wants to gain success with Barcelona. If he fails to improve defense system for Barcelona, there is very small chance of success there. Furthermore, attacking power of Barcelona was affected a lot last season with decreasing performance of Lewandowski because of ageing. Ageing effect on Robert Lewandowski can become bigger in a new season and this bring another big difficulty to Hansi Flick.

Barcelona don't have the luxury of buying as many players as they want. Unlike Real Madrid, who can buy any player they want, Barca's financial problems mean they have a spending limit. Therefore, Barca need to build a very balanced squad. Therefore, for Hansi Flick to be successful, he will need to keep players like Vitor Roque, Eric Garcia and he will need to know how to get the most out of every player at the club. For now, Hansi Flick's job is not easy and Xavi said before leaving Barca that Flick must be ready to suffer.

That is the burden that every new Barcelona coach must carry. Limited funds mean they can't sign as many players as they like. If for example, they have to sacrifice old players to bring in new players, it might be a solution, but it doesn't guarantee that their performance will improve because the players who leave may have made a contribution to their previous performance. However, if in these conditions it turns out that the coach can give the trophy, then it will be an invaluable source of pride because, with all these limitations, the coach was able to show his greatness.
