Barcelona striker could consider requesting release from club amid uncertainty over registration

Barcelona finds itself in a unique situation with forward Pau Víctor, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The young talent, under contract with the club until 2029, faces an uncertain future due to registration complications and if the situation is not resolved, he could consider requesting a release letter to end his association with the Catalan giants.

The problem arises from Barcelona’s inability to register certain players, including Dani Olmo and Víctor. Normally, a player who cannot integrate into the squad is loaned out.

However, for such a move to occur, the player must first be registered with the parent club. This prerequisite complicates Victor’s chances of getting playing time, whether at Barcelona or on loan elsewhere.

You can request a free transfer.

In extreme circumstances, Victor could request release from his contract. Such a measure would be supported by the regulations of the Spanish Federation, specifically article 133 of the General Regulations.

This article allows for the cancellation of a player’s licence, effectively severing ties between the player and the club. Once released, the player would be free to join another club, subject to compliance with the regulatory framework.

Furthermore, the FIFA Transfer Regulations provide an avenue for players in similar situations to request the immediate termination of their contracts.

What are the FIFA rules?

According to the media, article 14 of the regulations establishes that a player can terminate his contract if it is no longer reasonable or in good faith to expect the relationship to continue.

If Victor decides to take this path, questions may arise about possible compensation to Barcelona.

The regulations stipulate that clubs must issue a transfer authorization within 72 hours, which will allow the player to join another team quickly. This ensures that the process is not unduly prolonged.

As the situation develops, all eyes will be on the young striker’s decision. Whether he remains at Barcelona, ​​leaves via loan or opts for contract termination, the outcome will likely set a precedent for the handling of similar cases in the future.
