José Álvarez Announces a TOP Transfer for Barça and Provokes Laughter Live

The journalist from "El Chiringuito de Jugones" is closely following the development of the "Olmo case"

The blow that losing Dani Olmo for the rest of the season has left a lot of frustration and disbelief among Barça fans and supporters. Many thought that the executives led by Joan Laporta could work a miracle once again. But they ran out of time and maneuvers to solve this situation.

Despite everything, from the noble area of the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium, they insist on having an opportunity for Hansi Flick to be able to count on Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor again. The negotiations that the Barça board would be conducting would allow it to compete hand in hand with the most important teams in the European elite in the summer transfer market.

This is what José Álvarez has pointed out. The journalist from El Chiringuito de Jugones points out that "they believe that Dani and Pau are going to be registered and that they will be able to go to the market tomorrow". This version that FC Barcelona's executives has caused the discredit of many commentators on the MEGA program set, especially on the Madrid side.

So much so that, José Luis Sánchez, in an ironic tone, points out that FC Barcelona would be ready to "transfer Haaland." José Álvarez didn't hesitate to reply: "transfer Haaland. If he wants to come, yes. Because there will be the 1:1 rule, sign whoever they want, yes".

Many doubts

The arguments that FC Barcelona has presented to LaLiga and RFEF to be able to count on Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor during the second half of this season haven't worked. Both players, as already seen on the official competition website, are not registered in the first team... although they may return to the team from the City of Barcelona for the 25/26 season.

Meanwhile, the leaders headed by Joan Laporta will have to find a solution to fix a new institutional fiasco. The rumors triggered by the "Olmo case" once again cast doubt on the club's stability, especially after the first calls for resignation came a day after New Year's.

José Álvarez argues that the documentation submitted to solve the registrations of Dani and Pau would also allow FC Barcelona to position itself in the 1:1 rule, very elusive these years. That inability to maintain a balance between income and expenses, especially regarding the wage bill, has considerably reduced the possibilities of transfer big stars.

The most notable case has been Nico Williams. The '10' of Athletic Club de Bilbao was sought after by the Barça leadership, but decided to stay in the new San Mamés locker room. The doubts about his registration, something that Dani Olmo now suffers from, were the main cause of a refusal that is now the right decision.
