According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, FC Barcelona will officially announce today the signing of Spanish international footballer
Olmo
, the two sides will sign until 2030. Olmo will officially become a member of Barcelona this Friday, with all details of the signing having been finalized on Thursday.
Olmo arrived in Barcelona on Tuesday and enjoyed a local meal, showing his anticipation and excitement to return to Barcelona. Barcelona will pay a fixed transfer fee of 47 million euros plus a variable clause of up to 60 million euros. The trigger for the floating clause includes Barcelona winning the title and Olmo reaching a 60% appearance rate.
A versatile player up front, the addition of Olmo will provide Barcelona with more tactical options. Barcelona boss Frick knows Olmo very well, which is one of the reasons why the club is determined to bring him in. It's worth noting that Olmo left the La Masia youth academy in 2014, and now the former youth player is coming "home".
Olmo's return is seen as an important step in Barcelona's rebuilding process, and his technical and tactical abilities will add more possibilities to the team's future.
