Barcelona are constantly keeping track of the transfer market and are expected to sign multiple players in the summer of 2026. While signing a new defender is certainly on the agenda, Barcelona are also keeping tabs on many attackers, as they look to find more depth on the flanks. One of the players Barcelona are monitoring is Sail El Mala, who has emerged as one of the rising stars in the Bundesliga this season, reports Diario SPORT.
Indeed, according to SPORT, Deco met with Dani Olmo's agent, Andy Bara, in Barcelona to review the injured midfielder's current situation and lay a roadmap for his recovery. The Spanish international has been struggling with a series of injuries this season, though both the club and his camp remain calm. If his progress continues, he could be back on the pitch within a week or two. As per the report, the meeting was positive, reflecting the strong relationship between the parties.
Newcastle United, backed by the financial firepower of the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), are reportedly preparing to make a club-record bid for Dani Olmo, the Barcelona attacking midfielder. According to Spanish outlet E-Noticies, Olmo would be ready to depart Barca if the right offer comes, and that Newcastle are poised to trigger that moment with an offer in the region of 90 million (around 78m).
