It’s an issue that excites crowds in Spain, but not only that. Dani Olmo is still not registered with La Liga by Barça, and if the Catalans have now appealed to the Spanish government, it smells very bad. The player is already free to leave the club for free, and AC Milan have already positioned themselves to sign him for a period of six months and allow him to return to Barcelona next summer.

A situation that could suit everyone: Barça would not lose the player permanently, the player could play in the second half of the season and AC Milan would get back a quality player for the next six months. Everyone is happy. Or almost. Indeed, on the RB Leizpig side, we are following the situation of Dani Olmo very carefully.

A bonus story

As the journalist from the Cadena COPE and of Marca Pedro Morata, the German club is considering demanding 20 million euros from Barça. A sum which corresponds to the bonuses from the sale of the player to the Catalans last summer, including 10 which are a priori very easily attainable and depend on the number of matches played by Olmo in particular. Except that, if Dani Olmo leaves Barça or does not play in the second part of the season, these bonuses will logically not be activated.

Leipzig therefore considers itself wronged and the legal services are in the process of seeing how they can request this sum, far from being anecdotal, from the Catalan club, already in a difficult financial situation. This is therefore possible additional very bad news for the management of Joan Laporta, increasingly contested by fans and Catalan socios…
