In fact, his record against Atletico has been quietly impressive, starting his last three encounters and contributing two assists in that period.

Another solid season

From a statistical perspective, Olmo’s season is equally solid.

He has already featured in 42 matches for Barcelona, surpassing last season’s total, while registering 8 goals and 9 assists.

While his goal tally is slightly lower than the previous campaign, the fact remains that he has often been deployed further from goal, taking on more creative and transitional responsibilities.

What truly sets Olmo apart is his efficiency in the final third, as few players in the squad combine his close control with decision-making under pressure.

Now, as the season enters its decisive phase, Olmo finds himself chasing silverware once again.

Having already been part of last season’s domestic treble, he is now on the brink of adding further honours, with Barcelona pushing for another league title alongside the Spanish Super Cup.
