Barcelona have been dealt a blow in their hopes of registering Dani Olmo and Pau Victor in their squad for the second half of the 2024-25 season in La Liga, with the club’s court appeal for a precautionary registration measure rejected.

After La Liga refused the club’s request to extend his registration to the end of the season, Barcelona took the case to court claiming unfair competition and seeking to register Olmo until June 30, 2025. A Barcelona commercial court said in a ruling dated Monday that it had rejected the club’s requests as none of the criteria had been met.

Barcelona's appeal for the precautionary registration of Dani Olmo for the rest of the season has been rejected.
