Dani Olmo relieved ahead of El Clasico: ‘All Good’

As the Spanish Super Cup final nears, Barcelona’s Dani Olmo can finally relax. With just two days left before the highly anticipated Clasico against Real Madrid, Olmo’s emotional rollercoaster took a positive turn after the Spanish Sports Council (CSD) granted him a provisional license to play during Barcelona’s semi-final victory over Athletic Club.

The “Olmo case” had been a major point of controversy in Spanish football, with Olmo waiting anxiously for a resolution. During Barcelona’s team dinner at the Myazu restaurant in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, MARCA spoke with the player, and when asked about his mindset, Olmo responded with a smile, saying, “All good, all good.”

Barcelona’s squad took advantage of their day off to relax and bond as a team, enjoying a laid-back evening without the coaching staff. The players mingled with Saudi fans who gathered at the restaurant, eager for photos and autographs. Olmo was a particular fan favorite, attracting a large crowd of admirers.

Sunday’s final presents Barcelona with the opportunity to secure their first title under coach Hansi Flick. The German manager has already made a significant impact, guiding the team to a 4-0 victory over Real Madrid in La Liga earlier this season, as well as another win during pre-season. Following their hard-fought victory against Athletic, Barcelona enters their second official Clasico under Flick with confidence and momentum.
