LaLiga president Javier Tebas has hinted that the dispute with Barcelona over Dani Olmo’s registration has come to an end.
Initially, after Barcelona obtained the temporary legal status right to register Olmo in January, La Liga acted like they would appeal the decision.
However, during his appearance at Europa Press Breakfast Conference, Tebas spoke in a more conciliatory tone, easing tensions on the matter.
He stated: “It must always be busy and worried about the financial situation. Barça is coming off terrible losses from the covid era and it needs to recover. And then with operations like Barça Estudios, they haven’t gone well. It must be worried and busy. I imagine that Real Madrid is also worried about the stadium issue, Betis, Sevilla, Valencia with the new stadium…”
On Olmo, he continued: “When I said I hope it’s because I was hoping that Barça would solve its problems. There were four months since August for Barça to find solutions.
“There was time and a way to work, they wanted to solve it quickly and in three days. On January 3, after the guarantees that we had asked for, because the company did not seem very solvent, the money arrived and then they went to the CSD and in 24 hours they resolved it.”
“And they gave them a precautionary measure, putting some things into question. Olmo signed his agreements knowing that in December he might not be registered. I knew that he was aware that this could happen to him.”
