Barcelona coach Hansi Flick is “really happy” after having obtained “a precautionary measure” for the signings of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor.
Olmo joined Barca from RB Leipzig in August for a reported 60million euros (£51million), but the Catalan club could only register him for the initial stage of the season due to difficulties meeting LaLiga’s wage restrictions.
Victor has also been implicated in the ongoing registration issues and Barcelona had an offer to sign either player rejected through La Liga and the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) on Saturday.
In an article about X, Barça claimed that the Higher Sports Council (CSD) had to grant a precautionary measure for the registrations of the two players.
Flick said: “I am satisfied with this, I think the whole team, of course the players, Dani and Pau, are more than satisfied. It is the right decision.
Flick was reacting to the decision in the build-up to Wednesday’s Super Cup semi-final against Athletic Bilbao.
Despite their registration issues, Olmo and Victor were either named at Barcelona’s Super Cup party, yet did feature in Wednesday’s matchday squad.
