Barcelona Finally Register Dani Olmo After Exploiting La Liga Loophole
Barcelona’s financial struggles have been well-documented, but it seems they’ve found a way to get around their issues and register new signing Dani Olmo. The 24-year-old attacking midfielder has been stuck on the sidelines, unable to make his competitive debut for the Blaugrana due to financial constraints. However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Olmo will be registered provisionally until December 31, thanks to an injury to Andreas Christensen.
Christensen’s Injury Opens the Door
The Danish defender has been plagued by achilles tendon problems, and it’s been reported that he’ll be out for at least two months. This has led La Liga to grant Barcelona permission to register Olmo, as the injury is considered long-term by the medical committee. It’s a welcome boost for manager Hansi Flick, who will be hoping to see Olmo make his debut against Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday night.
Flick’s Hope
The German coach has been frustrated by Olmo’s absence, but he remains hopeful that the situation will be resolved soon. "I’m always hopeful, I was also hoping for him for the last game. It would be great to have him for tomorrow’s game," Flick said in his latest press conference. "These are things that neither the player nor the team can control. We talked about the situation, we know it is difficult here in Barcelona. I believe in the club and I hope we can register him for tomorrow’s game."
Olmo’s Impact
Olmo’s signing was a major coup for Barcelona, and his absence has been felt. The Spanish international has already impressed in pre-season, and his creativity and goal-scoring ability will be a huge boost to the team. With Christensen out, Olmo’s registration is a timely boost for Flick and his squad.
