Barcelona cheered: Olmo is finally allowed to go back to the field!

After a positive decision by the Supreme Sports Councilor Spain (CSD), Dani Olmo can first play for FC Barcelona again. This communication enables Olmo and his team -mate Pau Víctor to take part in the game until a final judgment, which is particularly important for the upcoming final of the Spanish Supercopa on Sunday. Before the announcement of the CSD, both players had no game permit for the semi -finals against Athletic Bilbao.

The problems related to Olmo are due to the financial difficulties of FC Barcelona. The traditional club is highly indebted and was initially unable to present an alternative solution for the registration Olmos. A judicial attempt to officially add the player to the squad had failed. A possible sale of VIP lodges in the modernized Camp Nou finally brought the necessary funds, with an Arab investment fund investing 100 million euros. Barcelona had initially not been able to show the full sum, and a transfer -free departure from Olmo would have cost the club over 260 million euros. Olmo only moved from RB Leipzig to Barcelona in the summer and has a contract until the end of June 2030.

like SPIEGEL Víctor from the further hearings of the CSD about the arguments of Laliga and the association, which are against the allocation of a new license. The outcome of these hearings could be of great importance for the future of the two players in the FC Barcelona squad.

In view of the current situation, the decision of the CSD initially seems to be a ray of hope for the players and the club. It remains to be seen whether the financial challenges with which FC Barcelona is confronted will continue to lead to problems with squad planning.
