<p>The Spanish Football Federation <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/barcelona-see-attempt-to-register-dani-olmo-officially-rejected-by-la-liga-and-rfef-in-monumental-blow-that-could-leave-eur60m-star-sidelined-for-rest-of-season/blt27336310e499c28f#cs525754fdc27d9efd" target="_blank">officially rejected Barcelona's attempts to register Dani Olmo and Pau Victor</a> in a momentous decision on Saturday. The Catalan giants are unable to register Olmo and Victor due to their financial woes which has made the duo free agents for now. The club will now enter into complicated legal proceedings as they attempt to plead their case.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>La Liga teams are divided on their stance on the Olmo case. According to <a href="https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/real-madrid-aliado-enemigo-caso-olmo-113136930" target="_blank"><em>Sport 45</em></a>, clubs like Atletico Madrid and Sevilla, who have a place on the La Liga Delegation Committee, are strongly opposing the Catalan club, but Real Madrid have taken a neutral stand as they consider their on-field arch-rivals as a strategic ally. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Per Relevo, Los Blancos president Florentino Perez reportedly cleared his stance in an intimate cocktail party where he said: "Barcelona must be left alone: <wbr><wbr>they are our partners, not a rival."</p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p>The Spanish champions will be back in action on Monday as they take on Dep Minera in a Copa del Rey round of 32 clash. Hansi Flick's side, on the other hand, will face Athletic Club next in the Supercopa de Espana semi-final on Wednesday. </p>
