This has prompted Sporting Director Deco to reassess the club's strategy, shifting towards a more active approach involving both arrivals and departures.
Deco, who had previously resisted selling players without the ability to register replacements, now finds himself overseeing a potentially busier transfer period.
Despite the uncertainty around Olmo and Victor, the club's financial situation has seen significant improvement.
The sale of VIP seats at Camp Nou has generated 100 million euro, allowing Barcelona to operate within their salary limits and free from previous spending restrictions.
This newfound financial flexibility could see players like Andreas Christensen, Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, and Frenkie de Jong depart, with Deco reportedly open to offers.
Additionally, Eric Garcia may join Girona, depending on the resolution surrounding Olmo and Victor's registration.
With a focus on strengthening the full-back position and adding a physical defensive midfielder to support Marc Casado, Deco is determined to bolster the squad.
However, the ongoing uncertainty regarding the club's ability to retain current talent, coupled with frustration within the squad, has left some fans uneasy about the planned arrivals.
