The controversial Rangers and Celtic friendly in Australia could still be knocked back with the SFA holding the final say.
The Parkhead club announced a 'four team tournament' and billed it as Ange Postecoglou's Down Under homecoming.
Rangers followed up with their own confirmation pointing to the revenue that the club could generate when compared with the Scottish Premiership payday.
It's the first time the rivals will ever meet outside of Scotland and the event is also set to feature Sydney FC and West Sydney Wanderers.
The Sydney Super Cup tournament has been met with a furious reaction from both sides of the Glasgow divide, with Celtic and Rangers both voicing their anger from the terraces on Wednesday night.
Both the Green Brigade and the Union Bears have made their position clear - but the final decision looks to be in the hands of the governing body.
While both Glasgow giants and A-League sides have announced the tournament, the process for any team to play a friendly match outside of Scotland requires the Hampden powerbrokers to grant permission.
It is understood that the SFA have not been informed of decision when they announcement of the clash was made on Tuesday, and they could still veto the glamour friendly.
However, the process of approving a club's application to play outside of Scotland is usually a formality.
