But it remains unclear whether he will compete in the club’s Champions League game in August.

The suspension of football across Europe due to the coronavirus pandemic has seen seasons extended beyond the expiring date.

FIFA had issued guidance that players and clubs should attempt to end the season with their current squads.

but they made it clear that both parties had to agree to continue working together.
