Courted by Manchester City, Dani Olmo has expressed his desire to stay at RB Leipzig this season.
While the transfer window of Manchester City is rather calm this summer, even if Josko Gvardiol arrived for 90 million euros, making him the most expensive defender in history, the English club were preparing for one last madness on the attacking front.
Olmo to replace De Bruyne?
After the departure of Riyad Mahrez to Al-Ahli and the serious injury of Kevin De Bruyne, who will not play again in 2023, Pep Guardiola and his staff have set their sights on Dani Olmo, author of a remarkable start to the season in Leipzig with in particular a hat-trick against Bayern Munich in the German Supercup. Seduced by his ability to move everywhere in attack, Guardiola saw himself making him one of his strong men this season.
