Barcelona's financial situation has repeatedly put the club in difficult situations across the past few seasons, with the latest struggle seeing them potentially fail to register a big-money signing.
Dani Olmo, a standout player for RB Leipzig, has been linked with a move to Barcelona, but his current contract situation presents several complications. His contract with Leipzig includes a €60 million release clause, which must be activated by July 15, 2024, or else Leipzig can negotiate a higher fee. Barcelona's interest in Olmo is tempered by their financial constraints; they are currently unable to register new players due to La Liga's Financial Fair Play regulations. This situation is compounded by the fact that Barcelona has already spent significantly on other transfers and must manage their wage bill carefully. If Barcelona cannot resolve their financial issues, they might miss out on signing Olmo, who could either extend his contract with Leipzig or move to another club willing to meet his release clause or negotiate a transfer fee. The next steps involve Barcelona potentially selling players or finding other financial solutions to free up space under the salary cap to possibly register Olmo or other new signings.
