Barcelona have signed Spain playmaker Dani Olmo from German side RB Leipzig.
Spain midfielder Dani Olmo was one of the standout players at Euro 2024.
The 26-year-old returns to Barcelona in a deal worth a reported 60m euros (£51m), external after playing for the Spanish club at youth level before joining Croatia’s Dinamo Zagreb in 2014.
Olmo has signed a six-year contract with Barcelona that has a release clause of 500m euros (£429m).
He was joint top-scorer at Euro 2024 with three goals as he helped Spain win the tournament for a record fourth time.
“Wherever he plays, Olmo stands out for his individual talent and his ability to link up with his team-mates.
“He has a nose for goal as he showed in Euro 2024 and can score from inside and outside the penalty area,” Barcelona said in a statement.
Olmo won two German Cups at RB Leipzig after joining them in 2020.
“A young club, a young player. We grew up, won our first trophies and made history together.
“Thank you RB Leipzig, you’ll forever be in my heart,” he said on X.
