Barcelona did not give up their bid to register Dani Olmo and Pau Victor, and for the moment, at least, they have succeeded after their exploration of the legal path has come to fruition.
As reported by El Larguero (via Sport), the Superior Sports Council (CSD) has granted Barcelona its very early precautionary measure, which means they are able to register Olmo and Victor for the time being.

However, the pair will not be available to face Athletic Club in Wednesday's Spanish Super Cup semi-final, although they could play against Real Madrid or Mallorca in Sunday's final, should Barcelona get there.
This is very good news for Barcelonaeven if it's just a temporary fix. A lot of work needs to be done to rectify the situation so that Olmo and Victor will be available for the rest of the season, but this is a good start.
