Barcelona Faces Financial Blow If Dani Olmo Can’t Be Registered

Barcelona’s financial troubles might deepen as reports suggest they could face massive compensation and transfer payment obligations if Dani Olmo isn’t registered. The situation, outlined by Mundo Deportivo, adds another layer of complexity to the club’s ongoing challenges with La Liga’s economic control regulations.

Full Salary Compensation to Dani Olmo

If Barcelona fails to register Dani Olmo for the upcoming January transfer window, they will reportedly owe the player his full contract salary until 2030. This could amount to a staggering sum, considering the length and value of Olmo’s deal. The Spanish international, seen as a vital addition to the squad, would still reap the financial benefits despite not being able to feature for the Catalan side.

€48M Payment Obligation to RB Leipzig

Adding to the financial strain, Barcelona would also be required to honor their agreement with RB Leipzig, paying up to €48 million for Dani Olmo’s transfer. This payment would be mandatory, regardless of whether the player is successfully registered or not, putting immense pressure on Barcelona’s already stretched finances.

Barcelona’s inability to comply with La Liga’s financial regulations has far-reaching consequences. Failing to register Dani Olmo could result in significant financial losses, both in compensating the player and fulfilling commitments to RB Leipzig. The club now faces a race against time to resolve its financial issues, as the stakes for January’s transfer window have never been higher.
