Two days later, now it’s gone Dani Olmo neither Pau Victor registered in LaLiga and pending a definitive resolution of their situation, the so-called ‘Olmo case’ remains open and there are several unknowns that have not been resolved. From the parties involved, especially FC Barcelona, the secrecy is maintained while they continue to work to resolve this situation.
The lack of information fuels speculation and concern not only among the two players involved, the biggest victims of the case, but also among the Barça fans and environment.

Before January 1, was there a 100 million contract presented to LaLiga for the sale of VIP seats?
From the Barça club, completely reliable sources insisted this Thursday morning that “everything that needs to be done has been done” and the necessary documentation to register both players has been presented, but they did not go into details.

Why hasn’t Barça officially announced this yet?
FC Barcelona has not disclosed any official details regarding the contract for the sale of VIP seats at the future Spotify Camp Nou, despite the fact that it is ‘vox populi’ that an agreement has been reached with the Arabs who will invest, as confirmed by club sources in MD. This agreement will allow the entity to solve financial fair play problems and reach the 1:1 LaLiga rule.

Who are the investors who bought VIP seats in the future Camp Nou and in what years?
Hermeticism is also maintained in this aspect. In the unofficial agreement will be for 20 years. According to the information obtained by the MD, the investors come from Dubai and Qatar and will pay about 100 million euros instead of 200 initially wanted. However, the club decided not to reveal the identity of the companies or funds that acquired this important asset of the new Spotify Camp Nou.

How many seats are there and at what price?
Another unanswered question. So far, no one at the club has provided precise information on how many VIP seats are involved or the privileges associated with them. There is also a lack of clarity about the total price of the transaction and its impact on Barcelona’s finances.
5
Have these investors bought VIP seats or boxes from other clubs?
It is also uncertain whether the new owners have previous experience with this type of investment in other sports clubs. It would be relevant to know at what price they carried out these operations and if their participation was part of a wider investment strategy.
6
Will the new owners be able to do business with the VIP seats?
It has not been clarified whether the new owners will be able to market or sell the seats within the 20 years of the supposedly signed agreement.

How much money will Barça lose if Olmo is free?
The signing of Olmo (48 million fixed euros) could add new losses if additional variables are included. In addition, the player can collect the salary of his contract until 2030, which will increase the financial pressure on the club.
8
What losses will be calculated in the current year?
According to LaLiga, it depends on the agreement signed by Olmo. If the club pays everything immediately, the losses will be carried over to the current year. Otherwise, they can be distributed until 2030. However, in the case of the 48 million fixed transfer fee in Leipzig, which has to be amortized over six years (eight ‘kilo’ per season), the negative effect on the 2024 account 25 is would be an unexpected 40 million deficit if Olmo is free now.
