Neymar should be free to make his Paris Saint-Germain debut at Guingamp on Sunday after FC Barcelona confirmed on Friday that the 222 million-euro ($261 million) cheque used to pay his buyout clause had cleared. “The cheque has cleared and therefore puts in motion the process of the transfer,” said a Barcelona club source. FC Barcelona must now deliver his transfer certificate to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) who will then pass it to the French Football Federation (FFF) for the Brazilian to be registered. “Once we receive confirmation from Barcelona, the transfer (certificate) will be (sent) immediately,” a spokesperson for the RFEF told AFP. “There is no reason for this hold-up to continue,” he told French sports daily L’Equipe.
