Man City are in pole position to sign RB Leipzig’s Dani Olmo following new talks, sources have told Football Insider.

The 26-year-old has revealed that a move away from the Bundesliga club could be on the cards with “several options” available to him.

The Premier League champions are the favourites to secure Olmo’s signature but must fend off stiff competition from Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

Olmo had a £51 million release clause in his contract which expired on Monday, July 15. Man City decided not to activate it but are still working on signing the attacking midfielder.

Pep Guardiola wants to add Olmo to impressive Man City squad
Olmo was one of Euro 2024’s standout performers in Germany, finishing as the joint winner of the Golden Boot.

Good with his feet and technically strong, he excelled in the number ten role, playing just ahead of midfielder Rodri and Fabian Ruiz, providing key assists to Alvaro Morata, Yamine Lamal, and Nico Williams

The Spaniard also helps out defensively as shown with a last-gasp goal-line clearance from England defender Marc Guehi’s header in the last few minutes of the final.

During his time at RB Leipzig, Olmo has made 148 appearances, scoring 29 goals and supplying 34 assists. Operating in multiple attacking roles last season, his 25 appearances yielded eight goals and five assists.

Adding Olmo to the likes of Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden, and Kevin de Bruyne would give the champions plenty of options going into the new season.

A week ago, we covered claims from Spain that Manchester City have ‘emerged with force’ in the race for RB Leipzig’s Dani Olmo.

The attacking midfielder has a €60m release clause which is valid until July 20th and it hasn’t been activated so far.

Thursday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo talks about Manchester City’s interest in the 26-year-old when discussing Barcelona’s efforts to try and sign him this summer.

The La Liga side are keen on signing both the Spain international and Athletic star Nico Williams this summer.

The attacking midfielder has a €60m release clause which is valid until July 20th and it hasn’t been activated so far.

Thursday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo talks about Manchester City’s interest in the 26-year-old when discussing Barcelona’s efforts to try and sign him this summer.

The La Liga side are keen on signing both the Spain international and Athletic star Nico Williams this summer.

On Tuesday, Barca director Deco met with Olmo’s agent Juanma López in Barcelona, and already made progress with the representative over his client’s personal terms. His side are not alone and this is when Manchester City and Bayern Munich are mentioned.
It’s claimed Olmo has ‘good offers’ from Manchester City and Bayern. Offers from Pep Guardiola’s side and the Bavarian club are both financially superior for the €60m player.

Atlético Madrid have become the latest club to join the race, and initiated contact over signing the Leipzig star. Mundo say he would prioritise Manchester City, Bayern and Barca over Diego Simeone’s side, unless they make an irrefutable offer.

Last week, Bild stated Leipzig are willing to sell Olmo for €60m if his clause isn’t activated by Saturday. This allows Olmo’s suitors to spread the payment instead of paying the full amount in one go.

Newcastle 1-0 Man Utd: Magpies move fifth as Gordon strike hauls them above United, Spurs
News Desk 02 Dec 2023 10:13 PM
Anthony Gordon, Newcastle United, December 2023
Anthony Gordon celebrates scoring Newcastle United winner
A solitary Newcastle United goal, scored by Anthony Gordon, moved them past opponents Manchester United and Tottenham in their sixth-straight Premier League victory at St James’ Park.

The Magpies, who returned from Paris St Germain in midweek bitterly disappointed with a 1-1 Champions League draw, dominated for all but the final few minutes and perhaps should have secured the points in more emphatic fashion with Kieran Trippier seeing a first-half free-kick come back off the crossbar.

However, Gordon’s 55th-minute finish – the fourth-successive home league game in which he has scored – proved sufficient to clinch a 1-0 win and send Eddie Howe’s side above the Red Devils in the table, although his joy was tempered by a potentially-serious injury to goalkeeper Nick Pope.

Manchester United, who had thrown away a 3-1 lead at Galatasaray to draw 3-3 on Wednesday evening, created little of note – they saw a late goal ruled out after Antony’s shot had clipped Harry Maguire in an offside position – as their run of five wins in six league games came to an end in front of a crowd of 52,214.

Under-fire goalkeeper Andre Onana and Diogo Dalot got themselves in a tangle as they attempted to deal with a Gordon cross, although opposite number Pope had to repel Alejandro Garnacho’s 11th-minute attempt with a well-placed foot after Bruno Fernandes’ superb pass had played him in behind Trippier.

Garnacho became an increasing threat down the Magpies’ right as Manchester United started to impose themselves, but Luke Shaw had to block Alexander Isak’s 15th-minute effort after Trippier had fizzed the ball into his feet inside the penalty area.

Onana saved from Miguel Almiron following a neat one-two between Joelinton and Trippier, while Guimaraes smashed an 18th-minute shot over from distance after Tino Livramento had surged forward down the left and cut the ball back.

The visitors were creaking and Maguire had to be in the right place at the right time to deflect Isak’s goal-bound effort wide before Jamaal Lascelles headed over from the resulting corner.

Playmaker Fernandes did his best to drag Erik ten Hag’s men into the game, but too often the men ahead of him were not equal to the task and they continued to look less than certain at the back with Isak firing wide 12 minutes before the break after Aaron Wan-Bissaka had headed Fabian Schar’s long ball straight to him.

Almiron curled an attempt over the angle of post and crossbar after cutting inside Dalot from Trippier’s through-ball, but Onana enjoyed the kind of fortune which has eluded him in recent weeks when Trippier rattled the crossbar with a 39th-minute free-kick after Maguire had felled Schar 25 yards out.

Livramento, whose scything run led to Isak’s goal at Paris St Germain, almost repeated the dose two minutes after the restart when he set up Almiron, but saw the Paraguay international’s shot half-blocked to allow Onana to save comfortably.

The keeper was finally beaten seconds later when Guimaraes rolled the ball into Trippier’s path and he crossed low to the far post for Gordon to score.

Schar whistled a shot from distance a foot over Onana’s crossbar as the home side looked to kill the game off, and Ten Hag responded by replacing Marcus Rashford and Martial with Antony and Rasmus Hojlund.

Antony added vigour to a side in desperate need of inspiration, but to little real effect and Wan-Bissaka survived penalty appeals for handball after blocking Lewis Miley’s shot with 12 minutes remaining.

Schar had to throw his body into the path of Sergio Reguilon’s well-struck 82nd-minute volley, although Pope’s evening ended in agony as he was led from the pitch having suffered an injury as he dived in anticipation behind the defender.

Replacement Martin Dubravka was beaten with two minutes of normal time left on the clock, but an offside flag came to the tiring Magpies’ rescue and they safely negotiated nine minutes of stoppage-time to claim victory.

Dan Ashworth is close to sealing his second summer signing as Manchester United sporting director.
The 53-year-old started work at Old Trafford earlier this month after Newcastle United agreed to release him from his contract for a “confidential” sum. Ashworth had been on gardening since February after signalling his intention to join the Red Devils less than two years since moving to St James’ Park from Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Magpies wasted no time in announcing Ashworth’s replacement with former Tottenham Hotspur and Monaco chief Paul Mitchell viewed as a huge coup. News on potential incomings is expected soon as Mitchell and Howe work together. At Old Trafford however, Ashworth has already begun splashing the cash.

On Sunday, Man United confirmed the arrival of Joshua Zirkzee on a five-year deal from Italian side Bologna for a reported £36.5million.

Speaking about the Dutchman’s arrival, Ashworth said: “Securing a forward to enhance our already strong group of attacking players was a key aim for this summer. We are delighted that we’ve managed to sign a player of Joshua’s calibre this early in the transfer window.

Lakers Expected to Make Consolidation Trade: Report

Lakers’ D’Angelo Russell and Rui Hachimura

D’Angelo Russell #1 of the Los Angeles Lakers talks to Rui Hachimura #28 in the fourth quarter against the Sacramento Kings.

After missing out on their free-agent targets, the Los Angeles Lakers are pivoting to the trade market to add an impact player.

The Athletic’s Jovan Buha reported on July 16 that such a move is still in play before the new season tips off.

“The Lakers expect to make a consolidation trade at some point, though that could come closer to the start of the season, according to league sources,” Buha wrote.

The Lakers have struck out from their initial free-agent targets Klay Thompson, Jonas Valanciunas and James Harden to their backup plans DeMar DeRozan and Gary Trent Jr.

Trent was the latest miss for the Lakers as the prolific 3-point shooter opted to sign with the Milwaukee Bucks on a one-year veteran minimum deal, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Why Lakers Are Stuck in the Mud?
Buha pinned the blame on the Lakers doling out player options instead of team options to their offseason signings last year.

“One of the reasons the Lakers have been unable to make any signings and had to explore trades is that four roster holdovers who were given second-year player options last summer — D’Angelo Russell, Christian Wood, Jaxson Hayes and Cam Reddish — opted in due to their performances last season and the tight free-agent market,” Buha wrote.

Of the four players, only Russell ($18.7 million) holds value as a salary ballast in a trade for an impact player who earns similar or less money.

With the four holdovers picking up their player options, the Lakers roster is currently full which made it impossible for them to go after Trent even if they have the $5.2 million taxpayer midlevel exception to offer.

The Lakers have to offload some of them to create a roster spot and use the midlevel exception.

JJ Redicks’ Wish List: ‘Big, Bruising Man’
After missing out on Valanciunas, Redick still hopes the Lakers could get a center of a similar ilk via trade to ease the defensive burden on Anthony Davis.

“You certainly have to look at what I think is actually a very good roster, a very balanced roster, Redick said in an interview with Justin Termine and Eddie Johnson on Sirius XM NBA Radio. “We’d love to, we tried, but we’d love to, at some point, get another five man, a big bruising five man.

“You look at the Western Conference right now, whether it’s Denver, Minnesota, OKC with what they added, certainly Memphis, they’re going to be back in the hunt, they added Zach Edey, certain matchups in the playoffs, you’re going to need a lot of size.”

Redick wants to add size to counter Nuggets‘ three-time MVP Nikola Jokic, Timberwolves‘ Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert and Thunder’s Chet Holmgren and free agent acquisition Isaiah Hartenstein.

Lakers Add G League Coach of the Year
The Lakers have beefed up Redick’s coaching staff by hiring G League Coach of the Year Lindsey Hardin, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Harding, 39, coached the Stockton Kings to the Western Conference Finals of the G League last season after working as a player development coach for the Philadelphia 76ers and Sacramento Kings.

She joins former NBA head coaches Nate McMillan and Scott Brooks and holdover Greg St. Jean, who started as a player development coach under Frank Vogel during the Lakers’ championship run in 2020.

Harding and Redick are reunited in Los Angeles after spending time together in Philadelphia and at Duke.

As Duke stars, Redick (2006) and Harding (2007) won the Naismith College Player of the Year in their decorated college careers. Harding was a player development coach when Redick played for the 76ers from 2017 to 2019.
