Футбольные посредники (агенты) стали неотъемлемой частью современного трансферного рынка. Зачастую отдельные представители агентского мира находятся в центре внимания всей футбольной общественности. Несмотря на кажущуюся свободу осуществления ими своей деятельности, она регулируется многочисленными регламентными нормами Международной федерации футбола (ФИФА), национальных ассоциаций, а также национальным законодательством отдельных стран. Интересно, что правовое регулирование агентской деятельности многократно менялось в результате проводимых со стороны ФИФА реформ, оценка которых не всегда была положительной. Бесконечная критика, споры, длительные судебные процессы не обошли эту сферу стороной.

Football intermediaries (agents) have become a truly integral part of contemporary transfer market. It is very often the case when certain representatives of agency world are in the spotlight of the whole football community. Despite apparent freedom of their activity, it is strictly governed by numerous regulations of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), relevant national associations as well as national law of particular countries. Remarkably, legal regulation of agents’ activity has been repeatedly changed and amended as a result of the reforms conducted by FIFA, evaluation of which was subject to criticism. More, this field has been constantly facing intense debates and long-lasting court proceedings.
