Barcelona star Dani Olmo can leave club for free in January as things stand

Barcelona are working out ways to bring in more finance before the end of the year, as they try to ensure that they can register Dani Olmo before the first of January. If they do not, they are at risk of losing their €55m investment.

Olmo joined from RB Leipzig in the summer on a six-year contract this summer, but MD have revealed that if Olmo is not registered for the second half of the season. Olmo agreed with the club to only be registered for one season initially when he joined, but as the Blaugrana struggled to do so, accepted to be registered for six months under the emergency injury rule, using Andreas Christensen’s salary space to register him. The condition was that Olmo would have inserted into his contract a clause that would allow him to leave on a free if he was not registered for the second half of the season.
