It appears that Barcelona will have the funds to now register Olmo, amidst concerns that the player would have to be sold.
Olmo may well have been a player that Ruben Amorim would have welcomed into his 3-4-3 system.
The 26-year-old in his prime years, having shined for Spain at the Euros.
The attacking midfielder played a pivotal part for the side, having predominantly featured as an attacking midfielder.
His ability to pick out passes in between the lines and positionally cause damage with his flair, would’ve made for a sensible fit at United.
Amorim will need to look to the transfer market to bring in an attacking midfielder.
Moreso, if Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes continue to dip in performances and fitness.
With Olmo appearing to be safe at Barcelona, the Red Devils will now have to look elsewhere.
Amorim may well have to bring in a short-term solution on a loan deal to bridge the gap until the summer window.
Christopher Nkunku may well be the solution, should he continue to struggle for minutes at Chelsea.
