BarcelonaS optimism around Dani Olmo’s registration continues to face obstacles. The league President Javier Tebas Recently delivered an update that complicates the issue and suggested that the Catalan club’s battle is far from won. While the Spanish midfielder remains provisionally registered, the way forward looks uncertain as legal procedures develop.
Dani Olmo, signed from Leipzig for EUR 55 million last summer, has had one turbulent season With Barcelona. While his talent is clear on the pitch, his time in Blaugrana has been full of adversities. Of the 2,880 minutes that Barcelona has played this season, Olmo has only managed 962 minutes – a clean 33.4% of the total playing time. He has missed 14 matches so far, with another absence that penetrates Atalanta.
The Spaniards’ injuries, in combination with technical decisions and registration issues, have limited his performances. Despite this, his early performances offered glimpses of brilliance. His three fantastic goals in the opening matches, especially against Girona, showed their potential to integrate seamlessly into the dynamic range of the Catalans together with players like Raphinha, Pedri and Lamine Yamal.
But a Muscle injury Holded in Montilivi stopped his progress. Subsequent performances, such as his performances against Espanyol and Dortmund, have been scarce and inconsistent.
Legal controversy: Registration problems remain
Barcelona’s registration of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor has been a contact point for controversy. Originally, it was first registered until December due to La Liga’s restrictions on the salary, the club met the risk of losing Olmo for free if his registration was not extended.

This decision reversed a previous decision from the RFEF-LAGA-Coordination Committee, which had canceled the players’ licenses. While this gave Barcelona a temporary call, the situation remains unsolved, with CSD that still examined the case.
Javier Tebas has now expressed a strong resistance to this decisionwith the task that La Liga has submitted appeals in the ordinary court to revoke the provisional registration. “We are against his registration and make the appeals that correspond to us … where we pray he does not continue to be registered,“ he said during a press event in Madrid.
What lies forward for Barcelona and Dani Olmo?
CSD has up to three months to complete its decision on the appeal, during which Olmo and Pau Victor are eligible to play. Notwithstanding, Several La Liga clubs have submitted complaints and claimed that the registrations were granted incorrectly. Teba’s pages with these clubs and claim, “If we, as a league, raise the corresponding appeal, it is because we believe that a decision has not been made in accordance with the law as it should be.“
At the moment, Barcelona can be sure that their match results will not be challenged retroactively. According to Tebas, ”When a player has a license, and at this moment, Dani Olmo has a license to play, a match cannot be challenged … although the latter controls to our advantage.“
