Hansi Flick ‘already ruled out’ ONE role for Dani Olmo at Barca

As Barcelona fans eagerly await the official announcement of Dani Olmo’s signing, reports suggest that coach Hansi Flick has already defined the Spanish international’s role for the upcoming season.

Contrary to expectations, Olmo will not be utilised as a left-winger, but rather as a playmaker operating in the central space between attack and midfield.

This decision makes sense, given Olmo’s exceptional ability to dictate offensive play in the final third.

With talented wingers like Raphinha and Ferran Torres already in the team, and the pursuit of Nico Williams still ongoing, deploying Olmo as a number 10 could be the most effective use of his skills.

However, this raises questions about how Flick will manage his resources, particularly with Fermin Lopez and Pablo Torre also best suited for the same position.

With Pedri and Gavi currently nursing injuries, Olmo’s role as a chance creator could be crucial for Barcelona’s success this season.
