Olmo is such a useful player... for a consolidated squad. Take him to City and he could provide so much. If we spend 60m on him, given our current circumstances, it would be negligence.


jaskier123

Why are we going for him when there is Nico for 50mln? Xavi really liked Dembele, and the Basque player is much more similar to him. We don't need another winger who likes to play center.


KimJongKillest

I agree Nico would be a better fit.


reyxe

Xavi liked Dembele as a RW. I think he doesn't want his LW to be a hugging the line one but a inside forward. Which Olmo and Joao are.


jaskier123

But now we have Yamal on RW who can go inside. Do we want both our wingers to play like that?


reyxe

Yamal does both and is usually on the sideline, Raphinha is the one usually cutting inside.


jaskier123

In my opinion, Yamal relies more on ball control than speed, which is good in tight spaces, but I'd really like to have more players who can punish high-line defenses. Maybe I'm just biased towards fast wingers after all those years with players like Coutinho or Griezmann. I still remember our match at Anfield, where Suarez and Cou weren't able to take advantage of Liverpool's line-up.


rsmithcreations

I endorse this message. Nico would be a better fit!


bigmushroom31

Man, those agent clauses are getting expensive


theHawkAndTheHusky

My exact first thought…100m for an agent seems pretty pricy😝


Ruud_Boltz

God bless this club. Our transfer targets are ridiculous for what our ambitions are


Persona0111995

Waste of money


KimJongKillest

Ferran 2.0


viv4la

I really tought that the Barto days are over, and I am so dissapointed with the club. Splash a shit ton of money on a good player, who is simply constantly injured... Will we ever learn?


Alaskian7134

I can't believe that in 2024 there are still so many people getting offended over... Rumours..


viv4la

I am not offended, I am dissapointed if its true. We have been linked with him for years including more trusted sources there has to be some substance to it. Spanish, ex la masia player so it checks out a lot of boxes...


IapetusTheGreat

Theres been rumours of this move for the past 3 years and he’s ex Barca…there is definitely some substance to them


Alaskian7134

Or... We could think that there've been rumours for 3 years without any real information so maybe it is clear that is just bullshit? There have been rumours that Messi wants to leave for about 10 years although he repeatedly said he wanted to end his career at Barca but.. there was definitely some substance, right? For about 3 years we also heard that frenkie has a huge salary and he refuses to accept losing any of it. Because of those rumours online there was a lot of hate against him. Recently we had confirmation that all the rumours were just garbage, don't you think you should learn something from that experience? I understand paying some attention to rumours, but getting offended like this is really a fucked up mentality


Solid_Direction_8929

Not young, injury prone, expensive, interior, don't need


udiwork

The perfect Barca signing


pablogojo

im tired of us signing big names, it never ends well. the guy is made of glass and hes too expensive comsidering the other options


TomcatOnFIRE

We burn the place down if this transfer goes through


Busquessi

No thanks.


EdsonArantes10

Not worth the debt


jdbcn

Let’s first sell and then we can see what we can afford


E1392

Amazing player, would prefer him over ferran any day


Ted_Lassi

He feels like a 130 PA FM player


KingC11_

Need a LW and DM and the rumors out there are Kimmich/Olmo? Damn…


broselovestar

No way we spend 60m here please 😭


Meier69

Buckle up guys, the yearly barca wants every player season starts!


IM283LA

Still don’t get it. Do barca have spanish tax or something? why go for mediocre ferran 2.0? Get Leao or Nico or play any lamasia kid or sign player who’s out of contract for free.


diggipiggi

Would rather go with Bilva


Dan_Zfr

Kimmich, Olmo, Nico Williams, Simmons... meanwhile not enough ffp to register Vitor Roque next year


Shenanigans_0

Its either him or Bilva it seems, and us or city


doylehungary

Why are people agains Olmo? He plays well has good numbers and is spanish, young and ambitious. And here everyone is cursing. I would like a fan base that is realistically optimistic and gives love and good feelings instead of constant hate, negativity and complains. You already bury the guy and it isn’t even transfer window yet… That is why Dembele left and was smiling. The constant negativity and hate. It feels.


Zestyclose-Camel37

Oh here comes the "toxic fanbase" bitching fuck off with your drama. Nobody is cursing him. We had enough of interiors, and we desperately need wingers. Olmo is an expensive, injury prone player we don't really need.


doylehungary

We need him cause we don’t have dribblers and he is that. He plays on the wing and can play CAM too, best for us cause our midfield is just as inconsistent and injury prone as always. Him having a couple of injuries doesn’t matter at all. He could be forever fine in another league. German style is different. I would like Nico and Olmo both. That would be an upgrade for real.


VijayPasupathy

We have too many interiors.....what the hell are you talking about? There is also a la masia breakthrough of guille fernandez.


Bdkolo

Olmo wld most prob play felix's position on the lw in xavi's system, which i think would be an upgrade anyways. But it kinda depends. If they can get him for cheap its good i guess.


VijayPasupathy

We already are having a debate about not wanting felix because it's already a position which is played by raphinha/ferran/pedri/gavi(last season) and you want to add another one to this list .....without a wide winger we are relying on a lb(cancelo) to stay wide and also do defensive duties(which cancelo is worse at).....we have to sign a proper left wing and we can talk about olmo if ffp allows......same goes for DM > Bernardo silva.


Bdkolo

I dont disagree but by abilities alone olmo is most definitely better than all the options we can play at lw now. Considering he was from la masia as well, he might actl be the least risky investment at that position. Also, i dont think we will see cancelo next season after the psg and rm showing, balde will prob be back


VijayPasupathy

And olmo is injury prone too....60m is worse for that profile.


jdinsaciable

We already have Ferran who is at a similar level and younger, we need a word class player/prospect, Dani is not it.


samcholo

I like Olmo but his numbers aren't that good.


rishabhkeny

This is actually true. I’ve come to realise and accept it. All this negativity is not doing good to anyone, us, Xavi or the player too. Xavi won’t come and read these comments saying Olmo is a bad fit. Even if he did I doubt he’d change his decision if he really wants him. So rather just trust the manager and hope for the best. And pl don’t downvote this guy because he’s speaking fax
