Sonny Bill Williams is a step closer to joining the French rugby club Toulon after collecting his travel visa in London.
After walking out on his National Rugby League club, the Bulldogs, last weekend, Williams had flown to London on his Samoan passport, meaning he needed a visa to enter France.
He landed in London on Monday but immigration officials at Heathrow airport stopped him transferring to a flight to France because he did not have a visa.
