Barcelona's Troubling Roster Dilemma: Olmo and Victor Excluded
Spanish football authorities have rejected Barcelona's attempt to register Dani Olmo and Pau Victor for the second half of the LaLiga season due to wage cap rules. Despite Barcelona's efforts to integrate Olmo and Victor, their registration remains barred, echoing past financial constraints that impacted player retention.
Barcelona's latest attempt to register players Dani Olmo and Pau Victor for the second half of the LaLiga season has been thwarted by Spanish football authorities. The Spanish football federation (RFEF) and LaLiga have denied the club's appeal, strongly citing wage cap rules.
Midfielder Olmo, a key figure in Barcelona's squad, and forward Victor had only been registered for the first half of the season due to financial restrictions. This recent development echoes Barcelona's previous financial troubles, famously highlighted by Lionel Messi's departure in 2021.
As the club explores legal avenues, including a potential complaint to the Spanish government, both players' profiles have already been removed from the LaLiga website, signaling an uncertain future for their participation with Barcelona.
