Barcelona have failed in their latest attempt to register Dani Olmo for the second half of the season, reports Sky Sports.

The 26-year-old midfielder joined the Spanish giants from RB Leipzig in August for a reported 60million euros (£51million).

However, Barcelona could only register the Spain international for the initial stage of the campaign because of difficulties meeting LaLiga’s wage restrictions.

And on Saturday, LaLiga and the Spanish football federation (RFEF) jointly rejected Euro 2024 winner Olmo and forward Pau Victor’s registrations for Barcelona.
