Olmo provided Izet Hajrović with an assist for the third goal and scored the fourth in the Europa League 4–1 victory over Fenerbahçe on 20 September 2018.[12] On 17 December, Olmo was named the best player of the Prva HNL for 2018.[13] In the same month, he finished 11th in Tuttosport's Golden Boy award, ahead of the likes of Kylian Mbappé and Josip Brekalo.[14]
On 14 February 2019, he scored the only goal in a Europa League round of 32 game against Viktoria Plzeň that ended in a 2–1 loss.[15] On 3 June, he was named the best player and best young player of the 2018–19 Prva HNL season.[16]

RB Leipzig
[edit]
On 25 January 2020, Olmo moved to Bundesliga club RB Leipzig,[21] signing a four-year contract.[22][6] He made his debut a week later, in a 2–2 draw with Borussia Mönchengladbach, coming on for Tyler Adams in 69th minute.[23] On 4 February he scored the only goal in a 3–1 DFB-Pokal defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt, having come on for Amadou Haidara at half time.[24]
Olmo made his first start for Leipzig on 9 February 2020,[25][26] in a game against Bayern Munich that ended as a goalless draw, coming off for Patrik Schick in the 69th minute.[27] On 12 June, he scored both goals in a 2–0 victory over 1899 Hoffenheim.[28] On 13 August, he scored the opening goal in a 2–1 victory over Atlético Madrid at the Estádio José Alvalade, as Leipzig progressed to the Champions League semi-final for the first time in the history of the club.[29][30]
Olmo played four games in RB Leipzig's victory in the DFB-Pokal in 2021–22, scoring to conclude a 2–0 home win over Hansa Rostock in the last 16 on 19 January.[31] He was a 69th-minute substitute for Kevin Kampl in the final on 21 May, and scored in the penalty shoot-out win after a 1–1 draw with SC Freiburg; with two minutes of extra time remaining, he was tackled in the penalty area by Nicolas Höfler and Kampl was sent off from the substitutes' bench for demanding a penalty kick.[32] On 30 July, again on for Kampl, he scored a consolation goal in a 5–3 loss to Bayern Munich in the 2022 DFL-Supercup.[33]
On 12 August 2023, Olmo scored a hat-trick in the DFL-Supercup against Bayern Munich,[34] providing the only goals scored in the match.[35]
Return to Barcelona
[edit]On 9 August 2024, Olmo returned to his youth career club Barcelona, signing a six-year contract in a deal reportedly worth in the region of €60 million.[36][37]
On 27 August 2024, after missing the games against Valencia and Athletic Bilbao as he was unable to be registered due to salary-cap issues, Olmo made his debut. He came off the bench to replace Ferran Torres against Rayo Vallecano in the second half and scored the winning goal in the 82nd minute, giving his club a 1–2 away win. On 3 November, after returning from injury, Olmo scored his fourth and fifth goals in five games for Barcelona in a 3–1 win against Espanyol.[38][39] On 26 November, he scored his first UEFA Champions League goal for Barcelona in a 3–0 victory over Brest.[40] Due to Barcelona’s failure to register him and teammate Pau Víctor in time for 2025, Olmo had the option of becoming a free agent and could negotiate with any club.[41] Subsequently, Consejo Superior de Deportes approved the registration of Olmo and Pau Víctor on 8 January 2025, meaning that both players could play for the club in La Liga, UEFA Champions League, Copa del Rey and the eventual Supercopa de España final against Real Madrid.[42]
International career
[edit]Youth teams
[edit]Olmo was part of the Spanish squad at the 2015 European Under-17 Championship in Bulgaria; he netted in the penalty shoot-out as they were eliminated by Germany in the quarter-finals, but then had his attempt saved by Will Huffer as Spain lost to England by the same means in a play-off for that year's World Cup for the category.[43] Towards the end of 2017, Dinamo Zagreb director Tomislav Svetina said that the club was doing all it could to get the teenager Croatian citizenship as Olmo himself showed a desire to switch to Croatia at the international level.[44] However, in October 2018, he made his debut for the Spain U21 side.[citation needed]
Olmo was part of Spain's squad that won the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Italy and San Marino, playing four matches, assisting one goal and scoring three, including one in the final which caused him to be named Man of the Match.[45][46][47]
Senior team
[edit]Olmo earned his first senior team call-up in November 2019, for Euro 2020 qualifiers against Malta and Romania, after Spain had already qualified for the tournament.[48] He debuted on 15 November as a substitute for Álvaro Morata in the 66th minute and scored three minutes later in the 7–0 home victory over Malta.[49] Fellow debutant Pau Torres also scored, making it the first time that two Spaniards scored on their first cap in 30 years.[50]
On 24 May 2021, Olmo was included in Luis Enrique's 24-man squad for the UEFA Euro 2020.[51] On 28 June, in the extra time of the round of 16 fixture against Croatia, he provided Morata and Mikel Oyarzabal with assists to set the score at 4–3 and 5–3 respectively.[52] On 2 July, after the quarter-final 1–1 draw with Switzerland went to a penalty shoot-out, Olmo successfully converted his as Spain won 3–1.[53] On 6 July, in the semi-final fixture against Italy, he provided Morata with an assist for an equalizer; however, another 1–1 draw went to another shoot-out with Olmo missing his penalty and Italy winning 4–2.[54]
Olmo was included in Luis de la Fuente's 22-man squad for the 2020 Summer Olympics, on 29 June 2021.[55][56] On Spain's road to Olympic silver, Olmo contributed an assist in the 1–1 draw with Argentina,[57] and a goal and an assist in the 5–2 victory over Ivory Coast.[58] He was named a starter in the final that Spain lost 2–1 to Brazil.[59]
On 11 November 2022, Olmo was named in Luis Enrique's 26-man squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[60] In their opening group stage match against Costa Rica, Olmo scored the first goal and assisted the seventh as they won 7–0, becoming Spain's biggest win at a World Cup.[61] He also played in the 1–1 draw against Germany,[62] and the 2–1 defeat to Japan.[63] He also started in Spain's round of 16 match against Morocco, which Spain went on to lose 3–0 on penalties following a 0–0 draw after extra time.[64]
On 7 June 2024, Olmo was selected in the 26-man squad for the UEFA Euro 2024.[65] He scored his first goal in the European competition in a 4–1 victory over Georgia in the round of 16.[66] In the quarter-final match against Germany, he was awarded player of the match, scoring a goal and providing an assist in a 2–1 victory after extra time.[67] Olmo scored his third goal of the tournament in a 2–1 victory over France.[68] In the final against England, he played a crucial role in the 2–1 victory with a goal-line clearance in the 90th minute.[69] With 3 goals in the tournament, he was awarded the Golden Boot in a 6-way tie.[70]
Personal life
[edit]Olmo's father, Miquel, is a retired footballer. As a forward, he played professionally for lower-league teams.[71] Dani's older brother Carlos is also a footballer and plays as a defender; he spent several years in Croatia, for Dinamo's reserves and also for Lokomotiva Zagreb.[72] Olmo speaks Spanish, Catalan, English, German and Croatian fluently.[73]

Biography
Early life
Daniel Olmo Carvajal was born on 7 May 1998 in Terrassa, a city in the Catalonia region of Spain.[7] Growing up in this football-rich area near Barcelona, he was immersed in a culture where the sport dominated daily life and community activities.[4] Olmo's family played a pivotal role in shaping his early passion for football. His father, Miquel Olmo Forte, was a professional footballer who played as a forward in Spanish lower divisions before transitioning into coaching and management roles. His mother, Dorita Olmo, provided steadfast support during his formative years.[8] Olmo also has an older brother, Carlos Olmo, who pursued a professional football career, primarily in lower leagues including stints in Croatia with Dinamo Zagreb's reserves. From a young age, Olmo's earliest memories revolved around the ball, constantly playing and honing his skills, deeply influenced by his father's experiences in the game and the vibrant local football scene in Terrassa.[9] He began his organized football journey at local clubs in the region, initially joining the youth academy of RCD Espanyol, Barcelona's city rivals.[4] At the age of nine, in 2007, Olmo made the move to FC Barcelona's renowned La Masia academy, marking the start of his structured youth development.[1]Personal life
Olmo is multilingual, speaking fluent Spanish and Catalan as his native languages, along with English, German, and Croatian, the latter acquired during his formative years in Zagreb.[4][10] In his personal life, Olmo maintains a relatively private profile but has been in a relationship with German influencer and model Laura Abla Schmitt since at least 2024.[11][12] As of 2025, the couple has no publicly reported children and is often spotted together in Barcelona, including discreet outings at local restaurants in the Eixample district.[13][14] Olmo is actively involved in charitable causes, having joined the Common Goal initiative in 2020 as the first RB Leipzig player to do so, pledging 1% of his salary to support community football projects worldwide, including those run by the NGO Cross Cultures Projects Association in Bosnia and Herzegovina.[15][16] He has also dedicated portions of his earnings to Croatian causes, reflecting his time spent there, and in December 2024 announced a €50,000 donation to fund scholarships for a Master's in Sports Management at the ITTI Sports Institute, promoting youth development in sports education.[17] Following his return to FC Barcelona in 2024, Olmo resides in the Barcelona area, considering it his home after a decade away, while maintaining strong ties to Germany from his seven years at RB Leipzig.[18] His lifestyle emphasizes privacy and work-life balance, with occasional vacations, such as a 2025 getaway to the Italian coast with his partner.[19]Club career
Early career
Dani Olmo joined FC Barcelona's renowned La Masia academy in 2007 at the age of nine, coming from local rivals Espanyol after initially developing in their youth system. Influenced by his father, a former footballer and painter who managed youth teams, Olmo quickly adapted to the demanding environment, progressing through the age-group teams from infantiles to cadetes and juvenils. During his seven years at La Masia, he honed his skills in a competitive setting that emphasized technical proficiency and tactical awareness, training alongside other promising talents in the club's youth structure.[1][20][9] By 2014, at age 16, Olmo faced a pivotal decision amid concerns over his pathway to the first team, as Barcelona's youth system was crowded with prospects and offered limited immediate senior opportunities. Seeking more consistent playing time and a clearer development project, he departed La Masia in July 2014 to join Dinamo Zagreb's academy on a free transfer, a move that surprised many given the prestige of Barcelona. This transition marked the end of his Barcelona youth phase, where he had not yet reached the Barcelona B reserve team but had shown potential in juvenile competitions.[21][22] Upon arriving in Croatia, Olmo encountered significant adaptation challenges, including cultural differences and the visible remnants of the country's past conflicts, such as bullet-riddled buildings and a palpable sense of history in everyday life. The language barrier and unfamiliar environment added to the difficulties, but he gradually settled by immersing himself in Dinamo's youth setup, which promised faster progression to senior football. As Olmo later reflected, "I knew nothing about Croatia, but I knew at Barça I was in danger of being lost in the system," highlighting his determination to prioritize opportunity over comfort.[9]Dinamo Zagreb
Olmo joined Dinamo Zagreb from FC Barcelona's La Masia academy in July 2014 at the age of 16, seeking greater opportunities for first-team exposure.[4] He made his senior debut for the club on 7 February 2015 in a 2–0 league win against NK Lokomotiva Zagreb, becoming the youngest foreign player to feature for Dinamo at 16 years and nine months old.[23] During his initial seasons, appearances were limited as he developed primarily with the club's youth and reserve teams, though he contributed to Dinamo's successful 2015–16 campaign, which secured the Croatian league and cup double.[24] On 22 August 2016, Olmo signed his first professional contract with Dinamo, a four-year deal that reflected his growing promise within the squad.[25] The 2016–17 season marked increased involvement, with 18 appearances across all competitions and four goals, helping Dinamo finish second in the league while gaining experience in UEFA Europa League qualifiers. By the 2017–18 season, he had established himself as a regular starter, scoring nine goals in 33 appearances and playing a role in another domestic double of league and cup titles. Olmo's development peaked in the 2018–19 season, where he recorded 12 goals and nine assists in 44 matches, earning the Prva HNL Player of the Year award as voted by coaches and captains.[21] His performances extended to European competitions, including key contributions in UEFA Europa League group stage matches and Champions League qualifiers. Over the 2017–20 period, he amassed 99 appearances and 29 goals for Dinamo, solidifying his reputation as a versatile attacking midfielder instrumental in multiple league titles (2017–18, 2018–19) and cup wins (2017–18, 2018–19).[26] In the first half of the 2019–20 season, Olmo featured prominently in Dinamo's UEFA Champions League group stage campaign, scoring once in six matches against teams like Atalanta and Manchester City. His form attracted interest from major European clubs, culminating in a transfer to RB Leipzig on 25 January 2020 for an initial fee of €18 million, a record sale for Dinamo Zagreb at the time.[27]RB Leipzig
Dani Olmo joined RB Leipzig from Dinamo Zagreb on 25 January 2020, signing a four-year contract for an initial fee of €18 million plus add-ons, amid the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic that would soon disrupt global football.[28] His adaptation was hampered by the league suspension in March, but he made his debut as a substitute on 1 February 2020 in a 2–2 Bundesliga draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach.[5] Olmo quickly integrated into the squad under coach Julian Nagelsmann, contributing to Leipzig's run to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals that season, where he featured in knockout ties against Tottenham Hotspur, Atlético Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain. In the 2020–21 campaign, Olmo established himself as a key creative force, recording 5 goals and 9 assists in 32 Bundesliga appearances while helping Leipzig finish second in the league and reach the DFB-Pokal final.[29] Across all competitions, he played 46 matches, scoring 8 goals and providing 12 assists, including notable contributions in the Champions League round of 16 against Liverpool.[30] The following 2021–22 season brought challenges with injuries, including muscle fiber tears and other issues that sidelined him for approximately 99 days, limiting him to 25 appearances and 4 goals overall.[31] Despite the setbacks, he recovered to become a consistent performer under Nagelsmann initially and later Marco Rose, who took over in December 2021, showcasing his versatility in midfield and attack. Olmo's form peaked in 2022–23, culminating in Leipzig's DFB-Pokal triumph with a 2–0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in the final on 3 June, where he scored the second goal in the 72nd minute after Christopher Nkunku's opener.[32] He contributed 5 goals and 7 assists in the cup run alone.[33] The 2023–24 season saw him notch 8 goals in the Bundesliga—his highest tally in a single German top-flight campaign—along with 5 assists in 21 league games, aiding Leipzig's qualification for the Champions League.[4] Over his four-and-a-half years at the club, Olmo made 148 appearances, scoring 29 goals and recording 34 assists across all competitions.[33] As his contract neared its expiry in summer 2024, Olmo opted not to extend his deal with Leipzig, allowing him to depart as a free agent and pursue a return to his formative club, FC Barcelona.[7]Return to Barcelona
Dani Olmo returned to FC Barcelona on a permanent transfer from RB Leipzig on 9 August 2024, signing a six-year contract until 30 June 2030 with a €500 million buyout clause. The deal was valued at an initial €55 million, with up to €7 million in potential add-ons, marking a homecoming for the player who had left La Masia at age 16.[34][20][35] Olmo made his competitive debut on 27 August 2024 in a 2–1 La Liga win against Rayo Vallecano, scoring the winning goal as a substitute. His integration was complicated by Barcelona's financial constraints under La Liga's financial fair play rules, with his initial registration temporary until 31 December 2024. Issues arose for the second semester, leading to his unavailability from January to April 2025. The club resolved the matter through an appeal upheld by the Spanish government on 9 April 2025, allowing Olmo to return for the final matches.[36][37][38][39] In the 2024-25 season, Olmo made 35 appearances across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and providing key contributions that helped Barcelona secure the domestic treble of La Liga, Copa del Rey, and Supercopa de España. His goals included decisive strikes in high-stakes matches, positioning him as joint-top scorer among midfielders in the league. Olmo's impact was particularly notable in Barcelona's possession-dominant style under manager Hansi Flick, where he adapted seamlessly as an attacking midfielder, enhancing the team's revival from a challenging previous campaign.[40][41][6][42] As of November 2025, in the early stages of the 2025-26 season, Olmo has featured in 9 La Liga matches, recording 1 goal and 2 assists while contributing to Barcelona's strong start in the UEFA Champions League with assists in group stage wins. His versatility has been crucial in Flick's system, allowing fluid rotations in midfield and attack to maintain Barcelona's high-pressing, possession-based approach amid the team's ongoing resurgence.[43][44][45]International career
Youth teams
Dani Olmo represented Spain at various youth international levels, beginning with the under-16 team and progressing through the under-17, under-19, and under-21 squads, where he honed his skills under coaches including Luis de la Fuente. His early promise was evident during the 2015 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, where he was highlighted as a standout talent by UEFA.[23] Olmo's breakthrough came at the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Italy, where he played a pivotal role in Spain's successful campaign to win the title, their fifth in the competition's history. Over four matches, he scored three goals and provided one assist, including the decisive second goal in the 2-1 final victory against Germany on 30 June 2019 at Stadio Friuli in Udine.[46][4][47] His performances earned him a place in the official Team of the Tournament, alongside teammates such as Fabián Ruiz and Dani Ceballos.[48][49] Olmo continued his international youth journey at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo (held in 2021), captaining the Spain under-23 side in six matches en route to a silver medal. He contributed one goal and two assists overall, with a standout performance in the quarter-final against Ivory Coast on 31 July 2021, where he equalized in the 30th minute and assisted Oyarzabal's goal in a 5-2 extra-time win at Miyagi Stadium. Spain advanced to the final but fell 2-1 to Brazil, denying Olmo Olympic gold.[50][51][52][53] Across his youth career, Olmo amassed 24 caps, scoring 7 goals and establishing himself as a versatile attacking talent ready for senior duties.[54][55]Senior team
Olmo received his first call-up to the Spain senior team in November 2019 for UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers and made his debut as a substitute in the 66th minute against Malta on 15 November, scoring his maiden international goal three minutes later to contribute to a 7–0 victory.[56] He earned his first start on 6 September 2020 in a UEFA Nations League match against Ukraine, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 win where he provided an assist for Sergio Ramos's goal. Transitioning from the youth setup, Olmo quickly established himself in the senior squad under coach Luis Enrique. Olmo was part of Spain's UEFA Euro 2020 squad, featuring as a substitute in the group stage matches against Sweden and Poland before starting in the knockout phase, including the round of 16 win over Croatia and the quarter-final penalty shootout victory against Switzerland; Spain exited in the semi-finals after losing on penalties to Italy. In the 2022/23 UEFA Nations League, he made substitute appearances in the semi-final against Italy (a 2–1 win) and the final against Croatia (5–4 on penalties after a 0–0 draw), helping Spain secure the title.[57] At UEFA Euro 2024, Olmo emerged as a standout performer in Spain's successful campaign, scoring three goals—against Croatia in the 3–0 group stage opener, Georgia in the 4–1 round of 16 triumph, and France in the 2–1 semi-final—tying for the tournament's top scorer with three goals and earning a place in the Team of the Tournament. By September 2025, Olmo had amassed 45 caps and 11 goals for Spain, with notable contributions in the 2024/25 UEFA Nations League, where he recorded 0 goals and 1 assist in 5 matches to help secure progression.[58] Olmo continued to feature in the 2026 FIFA World Cup European qualifiers in 2025, though he faced calf injuries that caused him to miss matches in October and November.[59][60][61]Playing style
Technical attributes
Dani Olmo is renowned for his refined technical proficiency, which forms the foundation of his effectiveness as an attacking midfielder. His skill set emphasizes precision and composure, allowing him to influence games through intelligent ball manipulation rather than raw athleticism.[62] In passing, Olmo favors short, precise passes that maintain possession in congested areas, demonstrating high accuracy in tight spaces.[63] He possesses excellent vision for through-balls, often delivering them to split defenses and create scoring opportunities, as evidenced by his strong ranking in key passes and assists during his time at RB Leipzig.[64][62] Olmo's finishing is characterized by composure, particularly with his right foot, where he favors inside-foot curlers for controlled placement.[64] He is effective from distance, generating power while shooting early after evading defenders, and remains clinical in one-on-one situations inside the box.[64][63] His dribbling showcases agility in navigating between the lines, with quick changes of direction to beat opponents one-on-one.[64] Olmo typically completes 2-3 successful dribbles per game, reflecting a success rate above 45% on nearly five attempts per 90 minutes in the Bundesliga.[62][63] Defensively, Olmo brings pressing intensity honed in the Bundesliga, using anticipation and agility to contribute to high-pressing systems through interceptions and recoveries.[62] However, he avoids diving into tackles, prioritizing positional discipline over aggressive challenges.[63]Positional versatility
Dani Olmo primarily operates as an attacking midfielder in the number 10 role or as a left winger, with the flexibility to deploy on the right wing or as a false nine.[4][65] His career trajectory reflects a progression from more central, goal-scoring duties in his youth to versatile wide and creative positions in senior football, allowing him to maximize his influence across attacking lines.[1][66] During his formative years at La Masia, Olmo began as a striker, leveraging his finishing prowess to become a top scorer in multiple age groups, before transitioning to winger roles that emphasized his emerging dribbling and playmaking abilities.[4][1] Upon moving to Dinamo Zagreb at age 16, he adapted to central midfield responsibilities, honing his tactical awareness in a more demanding environment, which paved the way for his senior shift toward wide areas at RB Leipzig to exploit spaces and deliver creativity from the flanks.[21][66] Olmo's positional adaptability shines in contrasting tactical systems: at RB Leipzig, he thrived in a direct, high-pressing style that demanded physicality and quick transitions, often starting from wide positions to press and counter rapidly.[66] In contrast, his roles at Barcelona and with the Spain national team align with a high-possession, pressing-oriented approach, where he drifts centrally from the left wing or operates as a false nine to link play and create chances.[62][65][67] In the 2024/25 season at Barcelona, Olmo's versatility was key to their treble success, scoring 12 goals in 39 matches while adapting to the high-pressing system, though ongoing fitness management has been crucial as of 2025.[1][68] His versatility draws comparisons to Luka Modrić, particularly in dribbling technique and vision, influences Olmo credits from his Croatian development, blended with the Spanish heritage of intricate passing and movement from his La Masia upbringing.[4][69] This fusion enables Olmo to reference technical skills like precise ball control across roles without disrupting team dynamics.[70]Career statistics and honours
