The registration dilemma of Olmo has once again turned Barcelona into a laughingstock. On the evening of January 4th, La Liga and the Spanish Football Association jointly announced that they had rejected Olmo's registration. It is reported that Olmo is very angry about this, while Laporta stated that he would appeal.
Due to their failure to complete Olmo's registration before January 1st, Barcelona has recently been in a passive position. Although they urgently raised 100 million euros by selling seats at the Camp Nou, their re-application for Olmo's registration was rejected by La Liga and the Football Association.
Barcelona is very disappointed with this outcome. It is reported that Laporta is particularly furious. Originally, he was supposed to have a lunch gathering with the opponent club before the King's Cup match and hold a reception. However, upon learning of Olmo's failed registration, he refused to attend these two major events.
For Olmo, this result is undoubtedly a disaster. In the next six months, he will be unable to play football. Moreover, according to relevant regulations, he cannot even be called up to the national team. In recent days, Olmo has consistently stated that he will not leave Barcelona and wants to continue playing for them.
However, he now faces two difficult choices: 1) Stay with the team, likely to go half a year without playing, wasting precious time; 2) Leave the team, terminate his contract with Barcelona, but he will not receive a penny of salary until 2030.
Spanish media outlet AS revealed that Olmo feels that Barcelona deceived him. Recently, Barcelona has been promising Olmo that the registration issue will definitely be resolved. However, Olmo received terrible news yesterday. He is "very angry" about this, while Laporta, who knows he is in the wrong, is making every effort to appease him.
Media outlet TA brought the latest news, stating that Barcelona has decided to appeal. Laporta will appeal to the Spanish government in hopes of obtaining temporary registration permission. The reason for Barcelona's appeal is that the team did not receive the funds before the stipulated time due to encountering "force majeure."
Spanish media revealed that Laporta once again blew hot air to Olmo, stating that Barcelona will definitely resolve the registration issue through the appeal and hopes that Olmo will patiently wait until the end of this month.
