Barcelona’s ongoing registration issue with Dani Olmo has become a topic of significant concern. Despite their efforts, the club has not yet been able to register Olmo on time, pending further confirmation.
This development raises questions about his future. As it stands, Olmo could choose to activate a clause in his contract that allows him to leave as a free agent. However, indications suggest that he has no plans to exercise this option for now.
The situation surrounding Olmo was expected to reach a resolution by January 31st, but there has been no progress. The circumstances remain the same as they were days ago.
Nevertheless, Barcelona remain optimistic that Olmo will eventually be registered in La Liga and contribute to the team during the second half of the season.
Club representatives have hinted that more clarity on the matter will be provided on January 3.
What’s the latest with Olmo?
Barcelona have faced legal setbacks in their attempts to resolve the issue, prompting them to explore alternative strategies.
One such measure involved securing €100 million from a Qatari fund by transferring the rights to operate VIP seating packages at Spotify Camp Nou for 20 years.
While the agreement between both parties has reportedly been finalised, its implementation required approval from La Liga. Unfortunately, no resolution has been reached yet.
Is there anything else?
The club has taken a proactive step by requesting new licences for both Dani Olmo and Pau Victor through the Spanish Football Federation.
Barcelona have also clarified in a statement that no extension has been granted by any other governing body to facilitate the registration process.
While the club considers the matter temporarily concluded for now, they acknowledge that it is not entirely resolved.
All eyes are now on January 3, when Barcelona are expected to provide further updates and details regarding the situation. For the moment, the uncertainty continues to loom over Olmo’s status at the club.
