Barcelona’s aspirations for next season encompass achieving success in both domestic and European competitions.
To realize their ambitions, Barça are keen on strengthening their attacking unit during the ongoing summer transfer window.
In addition to tailing Nico Williams, Barcelona’s management is also interested in his Spanish compatriot, Dani Olmo.
Barcelona eyeing Dani Olmo but awaits a resolution on Nico
Indeed, according to Matteo Moretto, Barcelona are currently engaged in discussions with Olmo’s representatives, exploring the possibility of bringing the attacking midfielder back to his boyhood club.
However, the report argues that Olmo’s future with the club remains uncertain until the situation with Nico is resolved. The Catalan giants are prioritising the activation of Nico’s €58 million release clause and are awaiting his final confirmation.

Until a resolution is reached regarding Nico’s future, Olmo will need to patiently bide his time and await further developments.
Reports indicate that Nico has already decided on his next destination, with an official announcement expected next week.
Consequently, Barcelona’s transfer strategy and market ambitions should become much clearer in just a few days.
Olmo wants Barcelona
While prolonging the transfer saga could cost Barcelona, they have a major bargaining chip over other competitors vying for Olmo: the player’s strong desire to join the Catalan club.
Indeed, reports have argued that despite Manchester City tabling an offer for the RB Leipzig star, Olmo has his eyes set on Barcelona.
Time will tell if Barça possess the required financial muscle to pull off the signings of both Nico Williams and Dani Olmo, but in the event Williams snubs them, advancements for Olmo are likely to accelerate.
