All subsequent claims, regarding sporting effects, have fallen one after the other into the abyss of despair for Barcelona and the players who see all the promises made to them heading towards a dead end with no way out.
The two entities that govern Spanish football believe that the deadline ended on December 31, indicating that there was enough time to submit all the documents correctly and on time, which was not the case. The lack of a positive response from football authorities will lead the leaders of the Catalan club to appeal to the Higher Sports Council (CSD), but before that, they must receive the official refusal from the Federation and LaLiga regarding the new license .
At that point, Barcelona will turn to the CSD, which could step in if a new license is refused and the club has respected the 1:1 rule. Indeed, issuing the procedures is a public function, allowing the CSD to intervene in the process to determine whether the Federation should process the registration in order to verify whether the license should be granted or not.

All this could drag on until Tuesday or Wednesday next week, which means that Olmo and Víctor will not be able to play in the Copa del Rey and will have a formidable challenge to appear in the Spanish Super Cup, at least in semi-final against Athletic Club.
