Barcelona nervously awaits the resolution of a court case on Friday that will dictate whether it can register Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. They would not be able to play the rest of the season if they cannot register before the end of the month.
The issue is of particular importance in the case of star signing Dani Olmo, who arrived this summer for €55 million from RB Leipzig. You have a clause in your contract that means if you are not registered, you can leave for free; He was signed up for the first half of the season due to the emergency injury rule.

Recent reports from England have claimed that Manchester City and Arsenal are watching the situation closely, in case they can make a bargain. The fact that his agent Andy Barça was present for Manchester City’s draw against Everton sparked more rumors about Olmo’s future. However, when asked by DM, quoted by MEN, Barça confirmed that he was simply on vacation.
Barcelona has assured that it will be able to register Olmo and Víctor and plans to sell more assets to do so if the court case does not rule in its favor. The Blaugrana are considering selling a package to market their VIP boxes at the renovated Camp Nou for 20 years, for between 100 and 200 million euros.
