.. The 24-year-old Spain international's contract with RB Leipzig is set to expire in the summer of 2027, and although the contract originally contained a €60 million release clause, it expired on July 20, complicating Olmo's transfer.
Olmo has grown into a central player for RB Leipzig since his move from Barcelona's youth academy in 2017, and his performances have earned him the attention of many giants. Over the past few seasons, Olmo has enjoyed a very happy partnership with RB Leipzig, but as his contract nears its expiration date, Olmo is beginning to consider his future.
Barcelona are open to Olmo's return and are hoping to strike a deal by lowering the transfer fee and increasing the surcharge. Manchester United are also reported to have shown a strong interest in Olmo, but Olmo himself seems to prefer a return to Barcelona. This makes Olmo's future uncertain, while RB Leipzig need to find a balance between keeping the player and getting a reasonable transfer fee.
For RB Leipzig, they don't want to lose a key player like Olmo easily, but at the same time realize that they may not be able to stop Olmo's transfer with his contract expiring. Therefore, Leipzig may set a reasonable transfer fee threshold, while also taking into account Olmo's personal wishes.
