The Spanish player fulfills his contract in 2024 and several European greats follow in his footsteps.
Dani Olmo is on Bayern Munich’s radar. The Bavarian club endured a turbulent season with coaching changes and a painful exit from the Champions League at the hands of Guardiola’s Manchester City, and it is sparking a quiet revolution for the next campaign. On that stage, Olmo arrives with striking impact. As GOAL has learned, Bayern’s technical staff has watched his progress for months and views him as a strategic asset for the coming season.
Revolution in Bayern this summer
The likely departure of Sadio Mane after his fallout with health concerns, along with ongoing tensions around Thomas Muller, signals that Munich will be active in the market this summer. Olmo appears in every list as the favorite to land in Munich, highly regarded inside the Allianz Arena. At 25 years old, Dani stands among the Bundesliga’s brightest stars. He has long admired Munich, and his standout performance in the German Cup with Freiburg, including a goal and a hat-trick of assists in 45 minutes, finally convinced Bayern’s board. They are determined to bring in the RB Leipzig striker. Yes, it is a priority move for them.
Madrid, Barça and Atleti follow in Dani Olmo’s footsteps
It is widely understood that Olmo harbors interest in the top clubs in Spain. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atlético de Madrid have at various times shown interest in his contractual situation, viewing him as a significant investment for the present and the future. Real Madrid has access to excellent reports on Olmo. Regarding Barça, interest is well known, and it should be noted that Dani spent six years in Barcelona and has openly acknowledged that a return could be a compelling option. Atlético de Madrid has also shown interest during the World Cup in Qatar and the club remains fond of the player. Yet, at this moment, reliable sources indicate Bayern Munich has become a serious rival for Olmo’s services.
Olmo will continue without renewal and will end contract in 2024
RB Leipzig has presented a lucrative renewal offer that would place Olmo among the club’s highest earners, aware of interest from major clubs. They know his contract expires in 2024 and if no extension is agreed, they risk losing him for free next year. For now, Olmo remains on a non-renewal path. The price continues to rise. Dietmar Hamann, a respected commentator on German television and a former national team figure, affirmed Olmo’s status in the Bundesliga as a creator who generates chances seemingly out of thin air and called him a potential bargain around 40 million euros for any club. Bayern Munich is pursuing Olmo this summer. This is a signal to observers and rivals alike.
