Barcelona and Spain midfielder Dani Olmo commented on the busy calendar, which is getting bigger every season.

“The calendar is going to be hellish again. The Championship ends on May 25, the Nations League final four will take place from June 4 to 8, and the Club World Cup starts on June 15.

What can be said here? Need to review it. It’s overkill to have so many matches. Rest is important. Holding matches every three days is dangerous. We prepare 100%, but the body has a limit. The calendar needs to be revised, it is excessive.

Does a busy calendar affect injuries like Dani Carvajal and Rodri? This is something we discuss with each other. As professionals, we have to be ready for anything. If earlier there were 40-50 matches per season, now there are 70-80,” AS Olmo quotes.

This season, Olmo played eight matches in which he scored five goals.

Let’s add that today, November 15, Spain will play a League of Nations match against Denmark. The game will start at 21:45 Kyiv time. On Football.ua online text broadcast of the match will be available.
