Barcelona remain calm even as club face April 7 deadline to register key player

Dani Olmo was a standout performer as Barcelona secured a 2-0 victory over Las Palmas, showcasing his brilliance with a stunning goal.

His exceptional control, quick change of feet, and precise finish highlighted why he is considered such a key player for Barça. More importantly, the match confirmed that Olmo is finally back to full fitness after a season plagued by injuries.

Recent positives surrounding Olmo’s form and fitness have led many to believe that he could be poised for a second breakthrough at Barcelona.

The Spaniard’s first breakthrough came in August when he was scoring in almost every other game before picking up an injury.

Olmo’s long-term availability remains uncertain

However, Olmo’s long-term availability still hangs in the balance. His registration with La Liga remains uncertain, with the club awaiting a final decision from the CSD, reports Diario AS.

The ruling, expected by April 7, will determine whether Barça’s appeal to reinstate his registration stands.

If unsuccessful, Olmo could be ruled ineligible, affecting both Barcelona and the Spanish national team ahead of crucial fixtures.

Despite the uncertainty, Barcelona remain calm, confident that the CSD will rule in their favor, allowing Olmo to continue his resurgence.

Should CSD rule against Barça, however, there’s not much the club can do and therefore, they might have to settle for the idea of playing without the Spaniard during the remainder of the campaign.

Once Barcelona go through the Olmo saga this season, the club can then utilise the summer transfer window to reduce their wage bill and make space for the former RB Leipzig star.
