FIFA FOOTBALL AGENTS RULES UPDATE FIFA have today approved the worldwide temporary suspension of the FFAR RULES affected by the recent German court decision, until the European Court of Justice decides a final decision in the pending procedures concerning the FFAR. As a reminder the District Court of Dortmund in Germany granted an interim junction in their country on 25 May 2023 regarding the FFAR on the following matters: 1- The service fee cap. 2- The rules concerning service fee payments. 3- The client pays rule. 4- The rules regarding the timing of service fee payments. 5-The prohibition of double representation. 6- The reporting obligations. 7- The rules regarding disclosure and publication. 8- The submission rule. 9- The rule that service fee payments must be made via the Fifa clearing house. FIFA have now recommended that all their worldwide member associations to also temporary suspend their equivalent provisions regarding the above. What this effectively means for clubs and agents that the above 9 rules should not now apply until the European Court of Justice ruling due in early 2024. I may be wrong but I will be expecting the English FA to follow the guidance of Fifa published today. 2024 is going to be an interesting and bumpy ride !! I am sure all football agents will bare a sign of relief at the moment!!!! #FIFA #FA #SETFORDS #football #footballagent #lawyers #caf #Middleeastfootball #ASIANSPORTS
