FC Barcelona achieved its first major objective during this transfer market. The culés managed to sign Dani Olmo after closing an agreement with RB Leipzig for 55 million euros, plus seven in variables. It is an addition that will undoubtedly improve the attack and the midfield area of ​​the Barça team, since the Egarense is a player who stands out for his ease in moving between the lines and finding dangerous positions.

However, according to some reports, not everyone at Barça wanted Dani to arrive this summer. It was said, very maliciously, that Pedri was not happy with the signing because it could take away his minutes and importance. However, the one from Tegueste broke his silence on this matter to settle the doubts about this supposed discomfort in the locker room.     

The Barça midfielder spoke about the signing

Through 'Residency', a network where players answer fans' questions, the man from Tenerife said what he thought about his new teammate. In an ironic tone, a user asked him if he liked the former Leipzig player's hair, something to which he responded that it was not his place to talk about this topic: "That question would be for my hairdresser." A few seconds later, the player spoke about the midfielder's arrival in Barcelona.  

"I like that he came to Barça, because we get along very well and I'm sure he brings many things. It was already seen in the Euro Cup." It should be remembered that Dani Olmo started as a substitute during the tournament, although once the group stage ended everything took a turn, especially after Pedri's own injury. The midfielder became one of the stars of the 'Roja' after having accumulated three goals and three assists in a total of six games played. For this reason, now the Canarian does not hesitate to recognize the performance of his new teammate and applauds him joining Barcelona.
