Spain star Olmo could have gone on a free transfer
Most recently, rumors surfaced that the 25-year-old would move to FC Barcelona on a free transfer next summer.
This leaves one of the most influential players with Leipzig. The club should have to cope with the departure of at least two top performers in the summer. Christopher Nkunku is drawn to Chelsea, Konrad Laimer to Bayern Munich. Official confirmations are still pending for both transfers.
In addition, Dominik Szoboszlai is about to be transferred to Newcastle United. The English could buy the Hungarian out of his contract, which runs until 2026, for 70 million euros.
