RB Leipzig reject second Barcelona offer for Dani Olmo

Barcelona are still yet to hear back from Nico Williams on a potential move, but it appears their attention has moved on to Dani Olmo, assuming the former will remain at Athletic Club. The Blaugrana must negotiate with RB Leipzig for Olmo though.

The Catalan giants have the green light from Olmo, but are still yet to reach an agreement with his club. As per Sport, Leipzig have turned down a second offer from Barcelona for Olmo. The terms offered were between €45-50m in a fixed fee, with €10-15m available in variables.

Their information is that the issue is not necessarily the amount, but the terms of payment. Leipzig want at least €55m guaranteed for Olmo, but Barcelona believe a €50m plus €15m in variables structure could be accepted. Yet Leipzig want the vast majority of that €50m to be paid within the next year, whereas Barcelona, as things stand, would need to separate the payment out across several years.
