Cadena COPE in Spain reports that while Koeman was unveiled by president Josep Maria Bartomeu earlier this summer as a replacement to Quique Setien, the necessary paperwork has not been completed.
It is claimed that Setien has not been officially sacked and a payoff is still to be agreed.
This leaves Koeman in limbo ahead of their LaLiga opener against Villarreal.
Koeman has been in the Barcelona dugout for pre-season friendlies against Gimnastic and Girona.
But such privileges would not be extended to LaLiga in two weeksβ time against Villarreal, if the club remain without a resolution for Setienβs severance package.
Setien wants to collect the yearβs salary that was in the contract he signed to succeed Ernesto Valverde.
