Dani Olmo has sent out a defiant message after Barcelona finished off 2024 with a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid.
The defeat means that Hansi Flick’s end the year down in third place in the table in Spain despite a brilliant start to the campaign.
Yet Olmo is in optimistic mood heading into the festive break: “We will come back stronger, have no doubt!” he posted on social media.
Olmo’s in the spotlight at the moment as [Barcelona try their best to ensure he’s registered for the second half of the season](https://www.barcablaugranes.com/2024/12/20/24326124/barcelonas-dani-olmo-registration-troubles-are-a-sign-of-chaotic-leadership).
The summer signing’s form has also been questioned recently. He looked a brilliant buy after arriving and scoring five goals in his first seven matches.
However, his season has since been interrupted by injury and the goals have dried up rather. He’s found the back of the net just once in his last 10 outings for club and country.
