Dani Olmo, Euro 2024 winner and Barcelona’s £51 million summer signing from RB Leipzig remains unregistered due to the club’s financial constraints. Despite hopes that Ilkay Gundogan’s departure back to Manchester City would ease the wage bill and allow Olmo to be registered, the club’s salary cap issues persist.
Barcelona is in breach of La Liga’s wage regulations, which are tied to revenue, and Olmo is currently restricted to training without playing any official matches. The Catalan giants are exploring player sales to reduce their wage bill further. Gundogan, who earns £17 million annually, is one of the highest earners the club is keen to move.
However, reports suggest that even with his exit, Barcelona may still struggle to register Olmo unless other players such as Julian Araujo or Clement Lenglet are sold. While Gundogan’s return to City appears imminent, Barcelona must continue cutting costs to incorporate their summer signings and comply with league regulations.
