Olmo in the injury prevention program
Much has been made of the fact that Barcelona have tried to put Olmo in a specific program after making a study of his muscle structure. The blaugrana did the same procedure with Team Pedri last year, which had strong results. Even though he’s down now, Pedri played 49 straight games before that.
“Well, there’s a plan, that’s clear. I’ve had some luck with some problems in my career, and I know I need them.
Olmo explained that he has a good understanding of the pitch and the work he does on it, in a bid to stay fit.
“Yes, all this is invisible work, work from the field. It’s something I believe in. You have to work hard in the field, but also have an impact.”

Olmo was also asked about the mental manipulation that takes a player when he can’t maintain his physical fitness. He admitted that his injury issues were worse last year than ever.
