La Liga and the RFEF blocked the recording under competition regulations.
FC Barcelona will appeal to the Sports Administrative Tribunal (TAD), affiliated to the Higher Sports Council (CSD), after the Monitoring Commission of the LaLiga-RFEF Coordination Agreement, which met this Saturday, rejected the re-registration of FC Barcelona players, Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor.
This is what a spokesperson for the Catalan club told the EFE agency. With this request for the application of an urgent precautionary measure, FC Barcelona aims to register the two players so that they can be available for the Super Cup in Arabia.
The aforementioned commission, after having “analyzed the applicable federal regulations”, determined “not to grant the prior visa nor the definitive license requested by FC Barcelona for the players D. Daniel Olmo Carvajal and D. Pau Víctor Delgado,” according to a press release.

La Liga and the RFEF added that they were taking this decision “in accordance with the literal interpretation” of articles 130.2 and 141.5 of the RFEF General Regulations, which prevent a player whose license has been canceled from obtaining a license in the same team during the same season where it was previously recorded.
This is the case of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor, who were not listed among the players listed by Barcelona on January 1, 2025, on the official LaLiga website. Both were withdrawn because Barcelona, according to the organization chaired by Javier Tebas, had not complied with financial control requirements.
This situation forced Barcelona to request a new license from the RFEF under the pretext of “force majeure”, which was refused by the governing body of Spanish football.
In addition, Barça could not provide evidence by the end of the year regarding the receipt of part of the 100 million euros it was to receive from the operation of the VIP boxes at the new Spotify Camp Nou, which he was able to do on Friday after receiving international transfers from two Middle Eastern investors included in the contracts.
