Neymar is poised to make his much-anticipated debut for Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday when they travel to Guingamp in their second game of the Ligue 1 season.
However, the French league are still waiting on a transfer certificate from the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) before the Brazilian can finally play.
The certificate has to arrive before Sunday if Neymar is to take to the pitch at the Stade du Roudourou this weekend, with it possible that Fifa may have to intervene if the RFEF do not send the document by Friday.
But the French Football Federation (FFF) appear confident that the saga surrounding Neymar, who cost PSG a staggering world record of 222 million euros ($264m), is near its end.
"The transfer is complete, so this should not last," FFF president Noel Le Graet told sports daily L'Equipe.
"The federation is in contact with our Spanish counterparts. There is no reason for this hold-up to continue."
These are complicated deals, but there is no missing document today.
"I do not need to tell you that there are a few problems within the Spanish federation. I do not doubt that this will be quickly solved. Wolves do not eat each other, you know."
