RB Leipzig attacker Dani Olmo insists that he is ignoring the speculation surrounding a potential return to Barcelona.

Dani Olmo has insisted that he is ignoring the speculation surrounding a potential return to Barcelona, with the attacker fully focused on the season with RB Leipzig.

The Spain international represented Barcelona between 2007 and 2014 before moving to Dinamo Zagreb, where he made 124 appearances before arriving at Leipzig.

The 23-year-old has scored 12 times and registered 13 assists in 61 outings for his current club, and Barcelona are said to be keen to re-sign him either in January or at the end of the campaign.

Olmo, however, has said that he is happy at Leipzig and not currently thinking about a return to Camp Nou.

"Barcelona? For now I'm focused on the season with Leipzig, I'm fine here. Nor was there time to even think about a transfer, everything was happening very fast", Olmo told Suddeutsche Zeitung.

Olmo, who still has three years left to run on his contract in Germany, has scored three times in 16 appearances for Spain since making his debut in 2019.
