<\/p>\n
Few issues have caused more outrage and fury in Spanish football this season than the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor. After Barcelona missed the deadline to re-register both players at the end of December, they were unregistered by La Liga and the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), theoretically ruling them out of action for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n
Barcelona have protested that they had done everything in a timely fashion on their end, and it was only La Liga\u2019s demands for extra guarantees \u2013 in this case proof of funds \u2013\u00a0 that delayed their re-registration, something not in the regulations. As it was Barcelona took the matter to Ministry of Sport, securing a temporary injunction to keep Olmo and Victor registered<\/a> while their case to do so definitively is resolved.<\/p>\n That case is due to be decided by early April at the latest, at which point Barcelona could lose Olmo and Victor if the case goes against them. La Liga and the RFEF have also challenged the injunction in court<\/a>. According to Catalunya Radio<\/a> though, Barcelona had a helping hand in their bid to get that injunction, from none other than Real Madrid President Florentino Perez.<\/p>\n They explain that Perez called the President of the High Court for Sport, Jose Manuel Rodriguez Uribes, lobbying them to concede the injunction requested by Barcelona, and that this is a version of events defended by La Liga President Javier Tebas and other executives in the competition. Thet are convinced that Perez\u2019s intervention was crucial in Barcelona being able to continue playing Olmo and Victor.<\/p>\n I\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez\u2019s contract extension until 2026 has been approved by La Liga after Bar\u00e7a gained financial flexibility through Vitor Roque\u2019s sale. This means all current players are now fully registered until the end of their contracts, not just for one season. @ffpolo<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 barcacentre (@barcacentre) March 13, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n It is also noted that Perez and Barcelona President Joan Laporta are in regular contact, and maintain a cordial relationship. The Real Madrid chief had a hand in Laporta\u2019s return to the Barcelona presidency too, helping him to secure the bank guarantee necessary for his board to be sworn in, back in 2021.<\/p>\n Many clubs expressed their fury at the decision to hand Barcelona the emergency injunction, with some calling La Liga \u2018adulterated\u2019. Tebas has also emphasized that Real Madrid were not among them publicly, casting aspersions on their behaviour. This comes in the context of Perez recently declaring at Real Madrid\u2019s General Assembly that Barcelona were a big club like them, and that the two \u2018had to help each other\u2019.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The post Real Madrid President Florentino Perez helped Barcelona secure Dani Olmo registration<\/a> appeared first on Football Espa\u00f1a<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Few issues have caused more outrage and fury in Spanish football this season than the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor.
