Hansi Flick has spoken on the ongoing saga regarding Dani Olmo’s status at Barcelona.
After joining the Catalan club in the summer in a £50m move from RB Leipzig, Olmo eventually became a key part of Flick’s side who are currently third in LaLiga.
However, as a result of the club’s much publicized financial difficulties, upon arrival, Olmo was forced to sit out the first two weeks before Barcelona were finally able to sign him after Andreas Christensen was forced out after to injure.
This move was only temporary however, and registration was due to end on December 31.
The club were rocked by the news that their attempts to re-sign Olmo had ended in failure, meaning the 26-year-old will not be able to play for the club again this season and cannot even leave on loan. because Barcelona didn’t have it. his registration.
23-year-old forward Pau Victor finds himself in the same situation with his re-registration also not completed before the deadline and, like Olmo, he could leave the club as a free agent.
The news will no doubt be a major headache for Flick, who arrived at the club in the summer after previously leading Bayern Munich to Bundesliga and Champions League success.
When asked about Olmo’s current status, Flick insisted: ‘It’s not my job.
“I spoke with president Laporta today and I have confidence in the club. They do their job, I do mine.’
Earlier this week Flick admitted he wasn’t very happy with the ongoing saga.
‘It’s normal. To be honest, I wasn’t happy with the situation either,’ said Flick. ‘The players are not happy either, but we have to accept that we are professionals.
‘I am hopeful, but we have to wait for the decision.’
With speculation rife as to where Olmo’s future lies, a number of clubs are said to be monitoring his situation.
However, the player’s agent Andy Bara has claimed that the player’s intention is to ‘stay at Barcelona’ and that they are ‘not considering any other option’.
