@eliud2013 Neymar in Barcelona as Brazil superstar 

2.32pm Neymar has left hospital following the first part of his medical tests and was again mobbed by supporters gathered outside. The second part will take place at the club's training ground. 2.48pm According to Barcastuff on Twitter, the gates of the Nou Camp have been opened 20 minutes earlier than planned to allow the large crowd assembled outside to get into the stadium for the Neymar unveiling. 

Earlier on, Neymar couldn't resist having his picture taken with a couple of club legends. Well, life-size photographs of them...

2.20pm As we wait for confirmation that Neymar has put pen to paper on his five-year contract, let's have a look at his goalscoring record.

For Santos, since his first appearance in 2009, he has scored 54 goals in 103 games in the Brasileirao League, 53 in 76 in the Paulista State Championship, 13 in 15 in the Cup, 15 in 29 in continental competitions and one in two in the FIFA Club World Cup. 

Overall, his club tally is 136 goals in 225 games.

And for Brazil, he has 20 in 32 matches. 

1.51pm So Neymar is currently undergoing his medical at the Nou Camp. We assume there won't be any problems on that front and the rest of the day can go ahead as planned.

13.21pm Neymar has arrived at the Nou Camp to be greeted by a crowd of photographers all pushing and pulling to get the the front of the queue.

The iconic Barcelona crest is the backdrop for Neymar's first official photos as he carries only a bootbag on his way in to his medical.

13.08pm Glen Johnson will know better than most just what sublime touch Neymar has, even if the Brazilian didn't make the most of his chances at the Maracana.

A long hopeful ball was played by Paulinho and both Johnson and Neymar chased after it. Neymar took it down with a sweeping touch leaving Johnson running past and looking rather foolish.

Wave away: The biggest arrival at Barcelona since a certain Argentine teenager?

Eager: Photographers line-up to take snaps of the new Barcelona star

New kid on the block: Outside the Barcelona offices

Joe Hart saved the day for England on that occasion, but there will be many keepers in Spain who aren't quite a good as the England No 1.

12.52pm With Neymar set to become his Barcelona teammate, Andres Iniesta is already predicting a bright future for both the Brazil star and the Spanish club.
