According to reports from MARCA and Yahoo, the player remains at his hotel and is not yet permitted to train with the first team while the club and player await the official announcement of the transfer.

Medical Clearance and Official Announcement

Reports from SPORT indicate that FC Barcelona President Joan Laporta is expected to arrive to make the signing official.

The timing of the arrival is described by Crónica Global as an “express signing,” emphasizing the urgency of the move to integrate the player into the squad as quickly as possible.
