Officially, Barcelona star Dani Olmo Has Stated That He Will Be Joining Manchester City this January on only one Condition
Manchester United and Manchester City can put their interest in Barcelona’s Dani Olmo on the backburner, as the Spanish playmaker’s registration issues with the Catalan giants have finally been resolved. This development comes after Olmo’s agent, Andy Bara, was spotted in Manchester, sparking rumors of a potential transfer.
However, it appears that Bara’s visit was merely a coincidence, and he claimed to be in the city on holiday. Bara’s agency, Niagara Sports, represents several high-profile Spanish players, including Alvaro Morata and former Manchester City striker Alvaro Negredo.
The resolution of Olmo’s registration issues is a significant relief for Barcelona, who had been struggling to register the player due to financial concerns. If the club had been unable to register him, Olmo could have exercised a clause in his contract to terminate his deal and leave as a free agent.
This would have allowed him to join another club without Barcelona receiving a transfer fee, which would have been a significant blow to the club. There were also rumors of a potential loan move to the Premier League, with Manchester United reportedly interested in signing Olmo on a temporary basis.
Fortunately for Barcelona, those rumors can now be put to rest. The club has confirmed that Olmo and teammate Pau Victor are now available for selection, and they will be eligible to play in Sunday’s Spanish Super Cup Final.
In a statement, Barcelona said: “Dani Olmo and Pau Victor have been registered for La Liga and are therefore available for selection by coach Hansi Flick, including for Sunday’s Spanish Super Cup Final.” This news will come as a significant boost to Barcelona, who will be eager to get Olmo involved as soon as possible.
