In a surprising development, Italian club AC Milan have offered Barcelona star Dani Olmo the chance to join them on a six-month loan, reports SPORT. If successful, this move would see him return to Barcelona in June.
The situation surrounding Olmo’s future at the club has become increasingly complicated.
Barcelona have yet to register the player, and the club is hoping to resolve this issue next week through the Spanish Sports Council (CSD) or by pursuing legal action.
Olmo, who is understandably feeling frustrated, has made it clear that his preference is to stay at Barcelona, but he is now considering alternatives in case he cannot be registered.
One option on the table for Olmo is the possibility of terminating his contract with Barcelona if the registration issue is not resolved.
However, he has no intention of taking this step. Olmo has always dreamed of playing for Barcelona, and his agent has reaffirmed that he will honour the contract he signed.

The challenge lies in the fact that if he cannot be registered, both Olmo and the club may look for a temporary solution that would allow him to play elsewhere until June.
It is said that the representatives have discussed a potential exit strategy in case things take a turn for the worse. One option could involve the termination of his contract, with a private agreement in place to return next season.
This arrangement would allow Olmo to secure a spot at another club while he waits for his registration issue to be resolved.
Interestingly, this is seen as a last resort, as Barcelona remain confident they can register Olmo before the end of the January transfer window.
The six-month loan option doesn’t seem ideal for other top European clubs that may be interested in Olmo for the long term.
However, for AC Milan, this could work well as a temporary solution. They would be able to match Olmo’s current salary until June, giving him the opportunity to play in the Champions League while competing in one of Europe’s most attractive leagues.
At present, neither Olmo nor his representatives are actively exploring other alternatives, but it is clear that they are keeping an eye on potential offers from other clubs should things take an unexpected turn.
