Barcelona 'will go to court' over Dani Olmo registration issue as La Liga make final decision

La Liga have made their final decision over Dani Olmo's Barcelona registration.

Olmo, who joined Barca from RB Leipzig for £51 million last summer, was registered as a special exemption only for the first half of the season as the club could not meet La Liga's wage cap restrictions.

A court rejected their attempt to re-register Olmo last week, with La Liga and the Spanish Federation coming to a joint decision over the situation.

According to Fabrizio Romano, La Liga and the Spanish Federation have REJECTED the registration of Olmo for Barca following intensive meetings.

That means he will not be able to play for the Catalan giants again for the remainder of the season.

The 26-year-old has made 11 league appearances this season, scoring five goals. But he won't be adding to his tally this campaign after failing to complete his La Liga registration.

Barca will go to court over the decision and a successful appeal could see the attacking midfielder become available for Hansi Flick this season.

Olmo has been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou amid his registration issues, with Manchester United thought to be keeping an eye on his developments.

But the player's agent, Andy Bara, has dismissed all the transfer interest.

Asked about recent links to Man United, he told Give Me Sport: "To be honest, I feel calm.

"It could feel strange but I believe in [Barcelona] president Laporta, Deco and I feel they will find a solution for Dani. It’s a massive club.

"We are not negotiating with any club. Dani is Barcelona player and he wants to be a Barcelona player. He has made a big effort in his life to be at Barcelona. It was his desire for a long time.

"Barcelona is the first and last option! Dani, his father, family, me, we’re not thinking about other options."
