During the summer, Barcelona struggled to register Dani Olmo after his big-money move from RB Leipzig. He missed the opening two matches of the season, against Valencia and Athletic Club, because there was not enough salary space to register him with La Liga, but Andreas Christensen’s long-term injury ended up finally making it possible.

Christensen was unregistered by Barcelona to allow Olmo’s registration to take place, but it is only valid until the end of 2024. From the 1st of January, the Catalans would need to find a way to re-register him – but as it turns out, they are about to find a solution.

As per MD, Barcelona are expected to unregister Marc-Andre Ter Stegen following his season-ending knee injury, and 80% of the German goalkeeper’s salary can be used to help re-register Olmo. According to the report, not only is it enough for this, but also for the impending signing of Wojciech Szczesny.

It’s only a temporary solution for Barcelona, and they desperately need to continue improving their finances over the coming months. However, this will at least allow there to be no more problems with Olmo’s registration for this season.

Dudek declares Barcelona target Szczesny as better than Ter Stegen

Jerzy Dudek feels Wojciech Szczesny will prove a good addition for Barcelona.

The former Juventus goalkeeper is willing to come out of retirement to join Barca as a replacement for injured No1 Marc-Andre ter Stegen.

Former Real Madrid keeper Dudek says Ter Stegen is, "in terms of goalkeeping", "a little bit worse " than Szczesny.

Speaking to Goal Poland, Dudek declared his fellow Pole as "a completely different goalkeeper to Ter Stegen" and emphasised that "Barcelona plays a slightly different system, with a lot of short play from the goalkeeper in the penalty area".

Szczesny is expected to be in Marbella this weekend for talks with Barca officials.
