If the transfer is “illegal” in the sense of FFP then they are simply passing the query up to UEFA being custodians of that nonsense, not the domestic authority.

Barcelona have absolutely no choice in the matter, they set a release clause amount which has been met. It now gets very interesting, if the deal is ruled out hard to see Neymar going back. Popcorn time.
As I believe you mentioned before, perhaps the fee could be lessened by the inclusion of a player such as Marco Veratti (who must be worth £100mill). It seems clear to me that he will leave and also that PSG will be banned from player transfers for a couple of years, unless they want to sell us Draxler (he won't get much game time now) to partly balance the books.
