FIFA tighten agent rules with new fee cap

FIFA will next week introduce widespread rule changes on how football agents operate, including a cap on the transfer commissions they receive and the introduction of an exam, the sport's governing body said. Those people wanting to become agents must now follow a strict process, including the need to pass a FIFA exam, and then pay an annual fee to the governing body. This marks a landmark step towards the establishment of a fairer and more transparent football transfer system.
