Ancelotti also speaks out on the ‘Dani Olmo case’

Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid's Italian coach, did not elaborate on the situation that Barca are facing with Dani Olmo, after failing to register the Spanish international before 23:59 on 31 December and requesting a new licence from the RFEF, but asked for respect for "the clubs, the institutions and the rules."

"I don't have the issue, the details of this issue, what I can say is that you have to respect all the clubs, the institutions and the rules, but I don't know the details of the issue to answer," Ancelotti told a press conference at Ciudad Real Madrid.

Barcelona have asked the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) for a new licence for Dani Olmo and Pau Victor as a case of ‘force majeure’, arguing that in the next few hours they will have 100 million euros for the transfer of the exploitation of part of the VIP boxes at the new Camp Nou.
