Arsenal have been told that Dani Olmo is not considering a move away from Barcelona, despite the club’s troubles in registering the player.
The Spanish giants are facing a fight to be able to register the midfielder for the second half of the season, meaning he could be available on a free transfer when the January window opens. That has reportedly sparked interest from Arsenal, as well as Manchester United, Man City and Chelsea.
Barcelona completed the signing of Olmo from Red Bull Leipzig in the summer, and were able to agree a temporary solution with La Liga following the long-term injury to Andreas Christensen. That agreement, however, expires at the end of December.
It is reported that Barcelona are trying to come up with a solution that will see them deal a £82.9 million deal to sell VIP boxes at the Camp Nou to Middle East investors. That could potentially free up finances to be able to register Olmo, but it’s now a race against time.
Interested clubs will be watching the situation with interest. But the player’s agend Andy Bara has now sent a clear message to those clubs.
