Manchester United ask about the situation with Dani Olmo
The Red Devils have put their eyes on a new player to help them improve the quality of their squad. The player that has been recently named, by the United’s board, is the Spanish Dani Olmo. The former FC Barcelona is developing his skills at R. B. Leipzig in the Bundesliga. This is not the first time the midfielder rang for Manchester United.
In the current season, the Spanish player has played a total of 1.112 minutes, divided into 24 games between the Bundesliga, Champions League, and the German Cup. Scoring a total of 4 goals and helping his team by delivering 6 assists. The 24-year-old player has a current market value of $40 Million.
What is the benefit that United could have with this player?
Dani Olmo is known for his explosiveness when the ball is on his feet. The advantage that he has to pass the rival players with a faint, and his sprints for the defence of the other team, to not being able to catch him. But what’s more interesting about this player is that he can develop his game across the front line, as he can play as an offensive midfielder, right winger, and left winger, and if it is needed, he can also play as a central midfielder.
What decision does Erik Ten Hag have to make?
With this new player, the former Ajax coach will have to make very important and difficult decisions, regarding the midfield. This is because in that area United has great players such as Casemiro, and Bruno Fernandes among others.
But with the possible outs of Jadon Sancho and Anthony Elanga, the Spanish player could have a chance to prove his game in the Red Devils, by the left or right side of the field, to get the minutes the player deserved. And as he is a player with the characteristics that Ten Hag likes, he could gain his trust quickly to perform inside the starting eleven.
What is the downside of this approach?
The Red Devils, are not the only ones who have reached RB Leipzig asking about the contract situation with Dani OLmo, into this race clubs like Tottenham and Arsenal are also on the look for the Spanish youngster.
