Dani Olmo

The Dani Olmo rumours are new. The first video I found was a "Welcome to Manchester UTD" one.
 
Bit weird that he moved to Zagreb after leaving the Barca academy isnt it? Probably toughened him up a bit mind you. I'd be surprised if we went to €25m for him though (unless thats including add-ons) given the stage of his development and league which he's coming from
 
Highlight video with obligatory terrible music.


Looks like he's got good technical ability and can dribble past a man.
 
Seems a lot for someone coming from that league and only brief amounts of playing time....

139 career games

Domestically
25 games in Zabreb II, 3 goals
71 games in first team, 17 goals

10 Europa games for Zagreb as well, 2 goals.

(+8 games in CL and Europa Qualifying)

Played in all Spain age groups, after being at Barca from age 9 and leaving their U18s for Zagreb as captain (I believe).

Croatian poster on TFC says he went there to get games and develop having seen the like of Modric come through the club.

Have to say, literally never heard of him before this morning, but its a very intruiging prospect IMO - not one Id write off too readily.
€25m today is peanuts, could be one of those "bit of a punt" moves that turns out to be a master stroke.
 
"Winger" doesnt mean what it used to, IMO. Its not Aaron Lennon any more, chalk on the boots and whippet fast...

If there is something to the move, I wonder what it says for the future of Lamela?

Wasn't there a similar situation between Barca and Zagreb a few years back over that supposed wonderkid we were looking closely at??I forget his name now... Alen something or other??

Seriously? I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic as I actually thought that was one of the much better reels we've seen of late!?

Some very assured first touches in there, good control, works well out of tight areas, nice composed finishes, and for a lad that clearly has a lot of skill and talent he doesn't look like a showman...he seems to always be very aware of his team mates around him, gets his head up and release passes at the right time.

...Which is something a certain similar player in our current squad could do with looking at!!!
