The 26-year-old, who starred at the UEFA European Championship, in which Spain emerged champions in July, will move to the Catalan club in a deal reportedly worth around €62 million plus add-ons.
Olmo, a La Masia academy graduate, will return to Barcelona on a six-year deal until 2030, where he began his youth career before joining Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb.
