Barcelona need to re-register players, with Dani Olmo and Pau Victor currently at risk. The Blaugrana must now register them before December 31 or risk losing them for the rest of the season.
It was revealed on Tuesday that the Blaugrana were exploring a legal order to ensure Olmo and Victor remain registered. They would argue that anything else would be an infringement on their right to work.
However, Barcelona are also looking at other methods to increase their salary cap so that they have enough money to include Olmo. According to Sport, on top of the new Nike sponsorship deal, Barcelona need to raise 60 million euros for their salary cap to match their wage bill.
Barcelona are considering selling the rights to their VIP seats at Camp Nou over the next twenty years, in a deal that could be worth anywhere between €100 million and €200 million. Their problem is that La Liga has spread the value of these deals across contracts, and therefore the Nike deal on its own will be insufficient.
