FFF: Transfer certificate of Neymar – Is the story over?

FFF confirms receipt of the transfer certificate of Neymar. He can play with the PSG. The story is over.

Neymar can make his Paris St-Germain debut after French football authorities received clearance following his £200m world record move from Barcelona.

The 25-year-old forward can play for the Ligue 1 side at Guingamp on Sunday.

The hold up was down to a delay in the arrival of the Brazilian player’s international transfer certificate from Spanish football authorities.

At a pre-match news conference, PSG boss Unai Emery said Neymar was “physically ready to start” the game.

Brazilian Neymar joined PSG from Barcelona last week.

He had to watch from the stands as his new side beat Amiens in their first match of the new season.
