60 million euros! Barcelona's first signing is officially announced! Flick names a player to buy

Barcelona was actually very low-key in recruiting players this summer. The player they were optimistic about, Nico Williams, was rejected due to the signing fee. In addition, Barcelona has been unable to sell the extra forwards in the team, which led to Nico finally choosing to stay in the team and play in Bilbao.

But another target of Barcelona, Olmo, has finally signed. After a long wait, Barcelona finally decided to meet the requirements of Leipzig. They paid the other party a penalty of 60 million euros directly. Barcelona has been communicating with Leipzig for this fee, but the other party's attitude is too tough and they don't want to sell Olmo to Barcelona at a discount. As a result, Barcelona now has to pay directly to sign Olmo.

In fact, Olmo and Barcelona have a very deep relationship. He was originally a player who went out of La Masia. This time, he can return to Barcelona after 10 years, which is very attractive to Olmo. In addition, Barcelona's new coach Flick is very optimistic about Olmo and thinks he is a top player. He can help himself upgrade his tactical system. After advancing in the frontcourt, Barcelona does not need to pass the ball to Lewandowski blindly to let him score.

Instead, Olmo can hold the ball in the middle to make offensive choices. Flick obviously wants to upgrade Barcelona's tactics. And he also hopes to make Olmo a new Xavi. Reusing him, Barcelona fans are worried about the overlap of positions and Olmo's injuries, but Flick thinks they are not a problem.
