Dani Olmo’s agent addresses registration issues and exit rumours – ‘We are not negotiating with any club’ | OneFootball

Dani Olmo’s future at Barcelona has been a subject of intense discussion, and recent insights from his agent, Andy Bara, have clarified the situation.

Olmo, who is yet to be officially registered by Barcelona, has been closely monitored by both Manchester United and Manchester City.

However, his agent has made it clear that Olmo’s sole focus remains on playing for Barcelona, where he has always dreamed of playing.

In an interview with GiveMeSport, Bara provided further details about Olmo’s current situation. He acknowledged the stress the player is under due to the uncertainty but emphasised Olmo’s resilience and determination to stay calm.

“It’s a stressful situation for Dani as it would be for any other player. But he’s a great player and person, he’s trying to be calm.

“Of course, Dani is a winner and he loves to play the games, not to watch them,” he began saying.

He also made it clear that Olmo’s desire to play for Barcelona has not wavered, and no negotiations with other clubs are taking place.

“We are not negotiating with any club. Dani is a Barcelona player and he wants to be a Barcelona player. He has made a big effort in his life to be at Barcelona. It was his desire for a long time.

“Barcelona is the first and last option! Dani, his father, family, me, we’re not thinking about other options,” he noted.

Olmo’s commitment to Barcelona is rooted in deep personal and emotional reasons. His family, Bara, and Olmo himself have all been vocal about their desire to make Barcelona his home.

Bara explained that despite the opportunity to become a free agent and potentially secure a lucrative move, Olmo’s love for the game and his dedication to Barcelona were stronger driving forces in his decision-making process.

For him, it’s about playing for a club he has always dreamed of, not about the financial rewards that could come with other options.

“We have never made any career decision for money. Dani plays football as he loves the game, he made a massive effort to be at Barcelona.

“I’m also happy to have Dani at Barcelona, he’s one of the best players in the world at one of the biggest clubs in the world.”

The agent also praised Barcelona’s efforts to bring Olmo in last summer, and his respect for the club’s current leadership, including President Joan Laporta and Sporting Director Deco.

“We respect President Laporta and Deco. They made a big effort to bring in Dani last summer. We like their project, it’s a big one for the future, one of the best in the world in the next years.”

According to Bara, the Barcelona project is an exciting one, and Olmo and his family are confident that the club will return to its glory days, winning titles similar to the era when Lionel Messi dominated.

“We fully believe Barcelona will win all the titles in the future like they did during the Messi era. The player, the family, me. We all wanted Dani to be at Barcelona.”

Regarding the ongoing media attention surrounding a potential move to Manchester United or Manchester City, Bara stated that he remains calm and confident in Barcelona’s ability to find a solution.

“To be honest, I feel calm. It could feel strange but I believe in President Laporta, Deco and I feel they will find a solution for Dani. It’s a massive club.”

In closing, Bara expressed his optimism that La Liga will support Barcelona in their efforts to register Olmo, dispelling any concerns about his national team availability.

“I believe that Barcelona will finalise everything and make it happen. La Liga should help them, instead of these reports of Dani not being available for the national team, but I’m sure he will be at Barca for many years.

“He’s happy at the club and Dani has a desire to be there,” he concluded.
