Dani Olmo's agent arrived in Manchester today as Premier League clubs look to take advantage of Barcelona’s battle to register the dynamic Spain international with La Liga ahead of the January 1 deadline. Olmo was a £50million signing from Red Bull Leipzig in the summer but could only be registered on a temporary arrangement until the end of the calendar year owing to La Liga's ongoing financial constraints on Barcelona.

It means Olmo can leave as a free agent if Spain's football federation continue to block his registration for the second part of the season as they push for the Catalan giants to make more cuts, find more revenue and comply with their financial guidelines.

Barcelona have instigated legal proceedings against La Liga and were initially hopeful of reaching a resolution before next week. However, with time ticking, the situation has alerted leading Premier League clubs such as Manchester City, United and Arsenal, who have taken a keen interest in whether a player so instrumental in Spain's Euro 2024 triumph could be available for nothing next month.
Olmo's priority has always been to stay with Barcelona, his boyhood club, but the drawn out process is understood to have forced his agent Andy Bara to begin exploring potential moves for the 26-year old who is recognised as one of the best attacking midfielders in Europe.
