I don't understand this one anyway. There are plenty of midfield options at the club and Merino would make more sense if anything. His contract is running out next season and he'd be cheaper.

Olmo is also another injury prone player and there is enough of them already at the club. 50 mil? You only get 20 league games a season out of him. Money needs investing wisely, or not at all. 

Nico and Merino would be spot on, or just Nico. No need for anyone else.

That was the release clause that's run out on the 20th. Can't see no reason why RB would let him go for that money now the transfer sum is to be freely negotiated.

We didn't buy him because of his injury record, finally learning to avoid injury prone players

Who says they wanted to? And RB have no financial issues, Olmo being 26 years so at best age for a footballer and still having 3 years contract aside.

I said in a group "He's due an injury" five minutes before he got injured.

Great player but seems to spend a significant amount of time injured.

Its really unfortunate, hes shown what he can do in bursts and clearly now at both Euro's and WC. The Thiago like fragility seems to be with him.

Barcelona might not be able to register him for the second half of the season.

Maybe they should try and be sensible when it comes to transfers rather than having a "just find a way to make it happen" policy.

Barca still owe us money, this could be a good solation for them, us and Olmo. Barca lower debt, we get a player we badly need and Olmo gets to play football
