Manchester United and Real Madrid are among the clubs keeping an eye on Dani Olmo this summer.

The 25-year-old Spanish international continues to excel at Red Bull Leipzig and has a clause that will come into effect this summer, when he can leave for £52m.

Olmo starred in Spain’s match against Brazil on Tuesday night, where he was used in the number ten position and scored an excellent individual goal, dribbling through the Brazil defense before finishing with a left-footed shot that hit the Spain a 2-0 lead in their 3-3 draw at the Bernabéu.

He began the season with a hat-trick for Leipzig against Bayern Munich in the German Super Cup and his performances have continued to attract scouts from Europe’s elite clubs.

Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham are also among the clubs keeping an eye on Olmo’s progress, particularly his ability to play on the wing or off the striker.

Olmo signed a new contract last June that runs until 2027, but the clause means several suitors are now assessing whether he could fit into their summer plans.

United are evaluating targets across Europe as they look to improve creative and attacking options and Olmo will inevitably be a player of interest depending on their budget and who leaves in the summer.

Real are expected to sign Kylian Mbappé this summer and will welcome the arrival of Brazilian Kendrick in July. They may also have to bid for Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies, which would affect their finances, but president Florentino Perez remains open to adding Spain’s best players to his brilliant squad if it becomes financially viable.

United are looking for a centre-forward, a centre-back and a full-back this summer, as well as a central midfielder. A lot will also depend on who leaves.
