Four English clubs have joined Manchester United and City among those circling for Dani Olmo as the clock ticks down on Barcelona's chances of registering him with LaLiga. The Catalan side's second attempt to register their summer signing for the second half of the season was rejected by the Court of First Instance 47 of Barcelona yesterday.

The attacking midfielder 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 LaLiga's ongoing financial constraints on Barcelona. It means Olmo can leave as a free agent in January if Spain's football federation continue to block his registration 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 LaLiga and were initially hopeful of reaching a resolution before next week but these have twice been kicked back and their Spanish star is inching closer to the door. And it seems England's biggest sides are lining up in the race to secure his signature, with Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham joining early frontrunners United, City and Arsenal, Mundo Deportivo reports.
