At a recent press conference, Raphinha voiced his concerns about Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. While he didn’t provide specific details, he pointed out that there are significant factors affecting their situation, which may include injuries, tactical decisions, or other circumstances influencing their performance and role in the team.
FC Barcelona will face Athletic Bilbao tomorrow evening in their bid to reach the final of the Spanish Super Cup, but the team will be dealing with some unique challenges. Last week, both the Spanish Federation and La Liga declined to register Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor, preventing the summer signings from playing. These absences are weighing heavily on the squad, and during the press conference, Raphinha expressed his concern about his teammates’ situations. This could complicate their plans for the match against the Basques.
“We are affected by Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor’s situation.”
The ongoing issues surrounding Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor have clearly affected the morale within the Barcelona squad. As a leader, Raphinha shared his worries about his teammates, stating, “We are affected by Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor’s situation. Of course. To say otherwise would be lying… When I arrived at Barça, I was aware of the club’s situation; it was a great opportunity to wear this shirt, and I waited and have never regretted it. Now, we must wait. The club is optimistic that it will be resolved in their favor. For Dani and Pau, it’s difficult to manage this situation, that’s clear.” His words reflect the team’s unity and the challenge of coping with the absence of these new signings, while also hoping for a prompt resolution to reintegrate them into the team.
Raphinha highlighted the importance of solidarity within the squad, stressing the impact of Olmo and Pau Víctor’s absence, and expressed hope for a speedy resolution to bring them back.
