According to Football Transfers, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are both ready to step up their pursuit of RB Leipzig star Dani Olmo, who was mooted as a target for Spurs earlier this summer.
Olmo was the hero for Spain in their Euro 2024 semi final win against France, netting the match-winner for the La Roja, and the attacking midfielder is now preparing for the biggest game of his career as his side will take on England in the final of the competition on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the speculation over his future continues to run rife, with the player widely backed to leave Leipzig to pursue a fresh challenge this summer.
Back in May, it was reported that Tottenham and Barcelona are set to battle it out for the 26-year-old’s signature (Sport BILD via Sport Witness) but since then, it has emerged that Manchester City are also keen on the attacker (Sky Germany).
However, if Football Transfer’s latest update is to be believed, it is Man Utd and Bayern who have shown the most concrete interest in Olmo.
The report says that the Red Devils have even held talks with Leipzig over a deal for the La Masia product, with Erik Ten Hag’s men prepared to spend big on the player.
The outlet reveals that Olmo has a release clause of €60m in his contract at the Red Bull Arena but the clause is only valid until 20 July.
As a result, interest from the likes of Man Utd and Bayern is expected to ramp up following the conclusion of Euro 2024 this Sunday, where Olmo will be looking to inflict more final heartbreak on England.

Tottenham have evidently abandoned their pursuit of Olmo and now appear to be focused on deals for Eberechi Eze and Destiny Doue.
We will likely see Spurs ramp up their interest in Eberechi Eze once the Euros are over.
