Real Madrid 'to battle Barcelona, Man United for Dani Olmo'

Real Madrid are reportedly firmly in the race for RB Leipzig attacker Dani Olmo, with Carlo Ancelotti's side preparing to rival a host of clubs for the Spaniard's signature.

Leipzig are seemingly facing a battle to keep hold of the 23-year-old, with both Barcelona and Manchester United said to be planning moves in 2022.

However, according to Transfermarketweb, there is also genuine interest from Real Madrid, who view the Spain international as the ideal player to boost their attack.

Olmo, who recently addressed the speculation surrounding his future, made his second club appearance of the 2021-22 campaign against Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The former Barcelona youngster has scored 12 times and registered 14 assists in 63 appearances for his Bundesliga club since making the move from Dinamo Zagreb in January 2020.

Leipzig have the attacker on a contract until June 2024, meanwhile, placing the Red Bulls in a strong position when it comes to any potential negotiations with interested parties.
