Will FC Barcelona manage to register Dani Olmo? Arriving this summer from RB Leipzig, Dani Olmo (26 years old) has still not made his debut with FC Barcelona. The attacking midfielder who cost 55 million euros has not yet been able to register in La Liga due to the salary rules imposed by La Liga, which the Catalan club largely exceeds. To register him, they will have to make room and İlkay Gündoğan (Manchester City), Mikayil Faye (Rennes), Vitor Roque (Real Betis) and Clément Lenglet (Atlético de Madrid) have left. But that is not enough.
In a press conference on Monday before facing Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday evening (9:30 p.m.), Hansi Flick appeared worried and explained that he did not yet know if the top scorer of Euro 2024 would be able to participate in the match. “I always hope to be able to count on him; I also hoped for it in the last game, but things are what they are. It would be fantastic, but we will see what happens. It is something that we cannot control, neither the player, nor the team, nor the coach, honestly, it is a difficult circumstance”the Blaugrana coach first assured.
“Dani Olmo is not happy”
According to Relevothe Blaugranas have until this Tuesday to register the player in La Liga in order to be able to use him that same evening against the Franjirrojos. And according to the Spanish media, the Catalan finances still do not allow Dani Olmo to be registered. A new stress for FC Barcelona at the end of this transfer window, but also for the player. “I spoke to him, it’s a tough situation for him and I hope he can play tomorrow. Of course he’s not happy, but he knows the circumstances. He’s ready to play.”added Hansi Flick about his new recruit.
“Some players have left in the last few days. We need players to be able to play and be competitive with the other teams. We will really make sure that Dani registers.”explained the German coach, who has long been questioned about the situation of the 26-year-old player, assuring that he is no longer waiting for new players due to the difficult situation of the club. However, sportingly, Barça could string together a third consecutive success and remain at the top of La Liga in the event of success on Tuesday evening, against Rayo. But for Olmo, the Catalans are playing for time.
