"I knew everything I could give to Barcelona and our national team"

Dani Olmo has become, as the matches go by, an important player for the Spanish national team. The Barcelona player appeared in the press room ahead of the match against Denmark, where Spain could certify their mathematical leadership.
“I feel important. I am one of the players who have played the most games and I feel good helping the team both inside and outside. We have a very good group and that's the strength we have. Off the field, we also have a fantastic relationship”, he began.
On his motivation with 'la Roja': “Is it hard for me to motivate myself for the national team? Not at all. The fact of wearing this jersey speaks for itself. I always do it with the same mentality and the same ambition”.
The player did criticsze the short time between the end of La Liga and the Nations League finals: “I didn't know there was so little time. Yes, this issue has been discussed and we should reconsider it a bit. They set up so many matches... it's a bit excessive and the most complicated thing is the rest. It is important. Playing every three days is dangerous. We demand ourselves to be at 100% all the time, but the body has a limit”.
“Sometimes we talk about it, but we have to prepare and be ready for everything. If years ago there were 40/50 games per season and now there are 70/80... you have to be prepared. We have to work and be prepared for that. As of today, that's all there is,” he commented on injuries.
Olmo boasted about his good form: “Maybe there were some who were surprised, but I knew what I could give to both Barcelona and our national team. At Barca I knew I was going to do well, with players with whom I understand each other perfectly.
Finally, Dani Olmo was surprised to learn that he has not lost to Spain for two years: “I didn't know that fact, it's pretty good, it motivates me to follow it. We face every game in the same way and with the same mentality and ambition. We have two Nations League matches left and we want to win them. We want to leave this training camp with six points.
