Olmo featured in Domenico Tedesco's starting XI in all five league games this season, registering two assists amid many fine performances. The 24-year-old's presumed replacement as the de-facto ten is Emil Forsberg, who will at least get the playing time he and his agent have been angling for over the next couple of months.
