According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona is actively working to ensure the official registration of Dani Olmo at the Club.
In fact, the club is focused on reassuring both Olmo and his family about the player’s future at Barcelona. In fact, on Thursday, Olmo’s father, Miquel Olmo, and a sports law expert met with Barcelona officials to discuss the situation.
During this meeting, the club confirmed that Olmo could continue playing without problems for the moment.
What is Barcelona’s plan?
Barcelona intends to secure Olmo’s services with a full contract extension that will last until 2030, to avoid potential repeat registration issues in the future.
To this end, the club is working to resolve all legal aspects, ensuring that there are no obstacles that could disturb Olmo’s future at the club.
One of the key steps in this process is to secure the financial aspects, particularly in relation to possible sources of income, such as the sale of VIP seats at the Spotify Camp Nou.
This long-term income strategy is considered vital to supporting the club’s future financial stability, which is important for registering players like Olmo.
What is the situation like?
Currently, Olmo’s contract is only valid until December 31, but Barcelona’s goal is to close an agreement that extends until 2030.
To safeguard the registration process, president Joan Laporta confirmed this Tuesday that Barcelona had filed a lawsuit in the Commercial Court number 10 of Barcelona.
A hearing is scheduled for Monday in which Barcelona and La Liga will present their arguments. Barcelona believe Olmo should be registered as a precautionary measure, just as they did with Gavi, who was successfully registered after a similar legal process.
Barcelona hopes to receive a ruling on Olmo’s situation before Friday, December 27. If the case is not resolved in his favor, Olmo will be released and the Club will have to pay his contract until 2030.
