Newcastle Aims to Sign Overlooked Player from Flick’s Squad

Newcastle recently set a record by acquiring Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart during the summer transfer window. However, this record might be surpassed soon.

Details: According to Spanish news outlet E-Noticies, Newcastle is interested in signing Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo. While Olmo has aimed for success with Barcelona, a lack of interest in him from new coach Hansi Flick might lead him to look for a new team.

If Olmo is unable to secure a consistent spot in the starting lineup in the upcoming months, he is ready to leave Barcelona. Reports from those close to club president Joan Laporta indicate that the board is surprised by Olmo’s lack of prominence, as many expected him to be a key player under Flick. The estimated transfer fee for Olmo is €90 million.

Reminder: Barcelona and Newcastle will meet in the first round of the Champions League group stage, and Barcelona will be missing Lamine Yamal for this match.
