> “I always tell him, ‘If I have a problem, I’ll pass you the ball’... And he says the same thing to me ‘I’ll give you the ball and you do the rest.’

> “We have that connection on the pitch that just comes out.”

Olmo was also full of praise for Lamine Yamal and knows that the 17-year-old is only going to get better and better as he develops at Barcelona.
