Louis Saha believes Dani Olmo would be a good fit with Manchester United. 

Olmo is coming off a starring role with Spain at Euro 2024, helping the side win the tournament for a fourth time. Now Saha wants to see United swoop for the 26-year-old midfielder, who has been with RB Leipzig since 2020.

Speaking to Paddy Power, Saha made his case for Olmo at United, including how he'd fit in beside a current Red Devils star.

“I want to see Dani Olmo at Manchester United," Saha said. "He has so much energy and he’s very busy. Yes, he’s very creative but he’s courageous too.  

“He always tries new things and it’s really hard to mark someone like him. When you have his mobility, like Bruno Fernandes already does, oh my God it would be so hard for the opposition to contain those players.   

“Manchester United would definitely be a good team for him because he is what they need. I was really impressed by his performances at Euro 2024 and what he did for Spain after Pedri’s injury was incredible.  

“So if there was a team in the Premier League for him, I’d say Manchester United all day.”
