Chelsea have a free run at signing Manchester United target Dani Olmo

There have been many names linked with Chelsea during this window, some being more spoken about than others.

One player linked by Goal recently, you may have forgotten about.

The publication claimed that Chelsea were ahead of Manchester United in the race to sign sought-after rising star Dani Olmo from Dinamo Zagreb.

The Spanish winger was also reportedly wanted by Barcelona. However, according to the latest report via Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, Olmo is no longer an option for Barcelona.

This means that if Chelsea were at all interested in signing the 21-year old hot prospect, then they have a free run at making the deal happen.

Whether he is someone that Frank Lampard is looking at for this month, the summer, or even at all, remains to be seen.

But he has mentioned now on a few occasions (as reported by The Telegraph back in December) that he is looking to improve the attacking areas this window, and Olmo certainly fits that criteria.
