FC Barcelona manager Hansi Flick will make a bold call when it comes to choosing his first XI for a Spanish Super Cup semifinal clash against Athletic Club on Wednesday.

Barcelona do not expect to have Dani Olmo or Pau Victor available for the Spanish Super Cup semi-final, but manager Hansi Flick said on Tuesday that the difficult situation surrounding the pair's registration can galvanise his team.

Barcelona winger, Raphinha, has warned the club that players may think twice about joining, due to Dani Olmo and Pau Victor’s registration problems. The Catalans have failed to register both Olmo and Victor for the second half of the LaLiga season due to their financial problems.

FC Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has confirmed the status of his winger Lamine Yamal on the eve of the Spanish Super Cup.

Raphinha has said that players “would probably think twice” about coming to Barcelona after Dani Olmo and Pau Victor were de-registered from their first-team squad. On January 4, Barcelona were planning to file a complaint to the Spanish government in their final attempt to register the two players after La Liga and the Spanish Federation (RFEF) refused to alter their stance on the registrations.

Raphinha says he would 'think twice before joining Barca' if the opportunity arose today, as the Dani Olmo registration debacle continues to rumble on, and Pau Victor also finds himself unregistered t

Raphinha spoke on the negative impact Dani Olmo's situation could have for Barcelona's future transfer targets.

Raphinha believes players may think twice about joining Barcelona off the back of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor's registration problems.
