The good deal turns into a disaster for Barça. Managed to register Dani Olmo with La Liga after summer transfer thread at 55 million euros from Leipzig, thanks to the long unavailability of Andreas Christensen, the Catalan club was however required to provide sufficient financial guarantees by December 31 to renew the deal and validate a new license you player.

Tuesday evening, however the league decided to block the registration of the Spanish international – and striker Pau Victor – for lack of having received the documents requested from President Laporta. And this despite a 100 million euro deal hastily concluded with Middle Eastern companies for the operation over 20 years of VIP locations within the new Camp Nou.

A financial disaster for Barça

So, three options emerge: either Barça finds the necessary liquidity in record time to allow Dani Olmo to play again quickly; It is therefore time to be patient and accept the idea of ​​further development on the pitch this season, in the language that the next off-season allows the Blaugrana management to replenish the club’s coffers; Thus, the versatile attacking midfielder has decided to leave FC Barcelona, ​​free.

Therein lies the whole problem for Barça, the player’s agent last summer having taken care to include a contractual clause providing for this specific case, and therefore releasing the interest from his obligations. Worse still, a scenario imposed on President Laporta to pay Dani Olmo the integration of his salaries until June 2030. That is to say the tidy sum of 48 million euros.

For now, the 26-year-old Iberian, Catalan by birth, has made it known that he wishes to remain loyal to FC Barcelona, ​​​​and has also trained normally again today. Maintaining the pressure promises to increase in the coming weeks, and there is no shortage of contenders for such talent. “More European clubs, including PSG, have already sought to find out,” reports L’Equipe this Wednesday evening.
