In Making Football Truly Global: The Vision 2020-2023, FIFA identifies “modernising the football regulatory framework” as the first of its core strategic goals. The regulation of the occupation of football agents within the context of the football transfer system is a core element of that strategic goal. The objectives behind the FFAR are to ensure that football agents’ conduct is consistent with the core objectives of the football transfer system, particularly the integrity of football as a whole, and to guarantee minimum professional and ethical standards for the occupation of football agent. The FFAR were adopted following a comprehensive, genuine, and inclusive consultation process where over 300 proposals regarding the FFAR were considered and analysed over the last four years. FIFA’s consultation and reform process regarding the FFAR as a whole was and is publicly accompanied and supported by various institutions and bodies. FIFA’s proposed football agent framework is in line with the European Parliament report on EU sports policy and the Council of Europe report on football governance, which have recently recognised and supported FIFA’s efforts to modernise the current transfer system, and particularly the new FFAR. Following the entry into force of the FFAR, which govern the occupation of football agents within the international transfer system and apply to all representation agreements with an international dimension, the FIFA Regulations on Working with Intermediaries are immediately repealed. In summary, the FFAR provide FIFA, together with its member associations and stakeholders, with a balanced and reasonable legal instrument to protect the integrity of football and the proper functioning of the football transfer system.
