While the soap opera involving Barcelona and its attempts to re-register Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor continues, there is now a new update on the matter from journalist Toni Juanmartí.
Having failed to register the couple before midnight on December 31, Barça has been struggling to resolve the issue even though there has been very little indication that La Liga or the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) will change your posture.
He blaugrana They continue to insist that they have sent La Liga all the documentation relating to the Camp Nou VIP seat package worth 100 million euros. And, after having received today the pending payment of 28 million euros for the same reason, they continue to trust.
The League and the RFEF will not approve registrations
However, according to the latest information obtained by Juanmartí, La Liga and the RFEF have informed several journalists in the last few hours that they will not approve the re-registration of Olmo and Pau Víctor.
Therefore, for Barça to be able to re-register both, they will have to go to court again and seek a resolution through legal means.
If things turn out like this, the blaugrana They have a plan in which they will request precautionary measures before the ordinary justice system so that Olmo and Víctor can continue playing.
Barcelona plans to argue that the current rules, which set a Dec. 31 deadline for player registrations, are unfair.
The club believes that the deadline should coincide with the end of the winter transfer market on February 2. This would give clubs the entire month of January to manage player transfers and adjust their salary caps, which is not feasible during December.
Either way, the situation leaves Barça management in a bad position considering how the entire situation has been handled.
As for Olmo and Víctor, if they are not registered they will not be able to play the remainder of the season and they will not be able to leave the club on loan.
In the case of Olmo, however, he has the option of leaving the club as a free agent thanks to a special clause in his contract, although the player remains determined to stay at Barcelona.
