Real Madrid rule out summer move for Dani Olmo

Real Madrid will not launch the offensive to sign 25-year-old Spanish international Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig in the summer transfer window.

According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Dani Olmo is no longer the subject of interest from Real Madrid. Widespread outlets had linked Los Blancos with the 25-year-old RB Leipzig playmaker. However, the Spanish giants have ruled out a move for the player heading into the summer transfer window.

Dani Olmo and his rise at RB Leipzig

Dani Olmo has established himself as one of the best players in the Bundesliga since joining RB Leipzig from Dinamo Zagreb in January 2020. An attacking midfielder by trade, the Spaniard is equally adept at playing on the flanks. And he has flourished in every role for his club and country.

The 25-year-old has grappled with fitness issues during his stint with RB Leipzig. However, the player has done well to overcome those problems and has enjoyed a solid 2023/24 campaign with the Bundesliga club. Olmo has amassed eight goals and five assists in 22 appearances across all competitions.

Meanwhile, Olmo’s progress at RB Leipzig has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Recent reports have linked the Spanish international with several Premier League bigwigs. However, Barcelona and Real Madrid have also shown interest in the RB Leipzig playmaker.

Where Next?

Real Madrid’s links with Dani Olmo made sense. The Spanish outfit will likely part ways with Luka Modric in the summer transfer window. In addition, Toni Kroos is approaching the end of his glittering career. So, the RB Leipzig star is a viable target for Real Madrid, especially considering his versatility.

However, Los Blancos will not launch the offensive to sign the 25-year-old Spanish international in the summer transfer window. The report has confirmed Real Madrid’s decision to rule out a summer move for the former Barcelona trainee.

With Real Madrid out of the race to secure Dani Olmo’s services, other clubs have received a shot in the arm. Recent reports have claimed that the Spaniard prefers a move to Manchester City. So, it will be interesting to see if the Etihad is his next destination heading into the summer transfer window.
