The recent decision by the Superior Council of Sports (CSD) to allow the provisional registration of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor at FC Barcelona has sparked a wave of reactions from LaLiga clubs. The controversial ruling, which contradicts the previously established criteria by LaLiga and the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), has raised concerns about the potential impact on the economic control system of Spanish football. Both Atlético de Madrid and UD Las Palmas have raised their voices to express their displeasure, warning of the risks this poses to the integrity of the competition.

Atlético de Madrid expressed its "deep concern" through an official statement, emphasizing that this ruling jeopardizes the financial regulations that have supported Spanish football in recent years. The Madrid club stressed that LaLiga's economic control has been key to the system's solvency, and it fears this decision could set a dangerous precedent for future irregularities. They also reaffirmed their commitment to responsible management, highlighting the efforts made, including capital increases, to comply with the established rules.

On the other hand, UD Las Palmas was even more forceful, stating that this decision undermines the transparency and fairness of Spanish football. In their statement, the island club criticized the "unusual speed" with which the ruling was made, noting that neither LaLiga nor RFEF were consulted in the process. They argued that this creates a sense of arbitrariness, contradicting the fundamental principles of sports management. Furthermore, the club questioned the CSD's apparent lack of understanding of the system for prior visas and final licenses.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti chose to maintain a discreet stance on the matter. During the press conference following Real Madrid's semifinal win in the Supercup, the Italian coach stated that he preferred not to publicly express his opinion, despite having a clear position on the controversy. "I think, but I don't want to talk," was his cryptic response, justifying his silence with the official nature of his role. Ancelotti's caution contrasts with the more outspoken reactions of other clubs.

Another point of controversy has been the behavior of FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta during the Supercup semifinal. His gestures and statements have been criticized, but once again Ancelotti avoided commenting on the issue. "It's a complicated matter, I prefer not to speak on it," said the Italian coach, indicating his intention not to escalate the controversy. However, the actions seen in the stands have reignited the debate about the image Spanish football projects internationally.

The resolution of the Dani Olmo case has not only divided opinions but also highlighted the existing tensions between clubs, sports institutions, and governing bodies of Spanish football. Both Atlético de Madrid and UD Las Palmas have made it clear that they will continue to defend a fair and balanced system, based on clear and consensual rules. This case, which seems far from being fully resolved, could mark a turning point in the management of professional football in Spain.
