FIFA Agent Exam — Mock Test 2 (FFAR)
5 FFAR-focused questions on service fees, representation agreements, connected agents, and dual representation. Full answer explanations with article references.
It is transfer deadline day and several clubs are interested in signing a loanee called Lorna. Her football agent, Mauro, is not answering his phone and eventually emails to say he will consider offers 'if and when he finds the time.' How should the interested clubs make their offers to Lorna?
Which of the following clauses in a representation agreement with a player is null and void under FFAR?
Aznar is a young football agent who wants to approach Carlos, a star player exclusively represented by Chiotis, whose representation agreement expires in six months. What can Aznar legitimately do?
What happens when a football agent accepts an offer to work as a club's full-time scout and signs an employment contract with that club?
João, a football player from Brazil, aged 18, has attracted attention from several European clubs. What are the minimum requirements of a representation agreement between João and a football agent?
Answer key
B — By submitting their offers to FC Lake, because they can negotiate on Lorna's behalf
Under FFAR, when an agent is unavailable or unresponsive, a player's current club can act as the channel for receiving and facilitating transfer offers. FC Lake, as the club with contractual standing over Lorna, can negotiate on her behalf in this situation.
📄 FFAR — Agent availability and representation obligations
B — Automatic extension of a representation agreement upon the player signing a new employment contract with a club
FFAR Article 16 explicitly prohibits automatic extension clauses in representation agreements with players. Each agreement must be deliberately re-executed — it cannot be extended automatically by the occurrence of an external event such as signing a new club contract.
📄 FFAR Article 16
D — Wait until the representation agreement between Carlos and Chiotis has entered its final 60 days and then approach Carlos
FFAR Article 16 prohibits an agent from soliciting or approaching a player who is exclusively represented by another agent, except during the final 60-day period before the existing representation agreement expires. All other options described constitute violations of FFAR.
📄 FFAR Article 16
B — They become ineligible for the football agent licence as a club employee/official
FFAR Article 5 sets out ineligibility criteria for football agent licences. Becoming a full-time employee or official of a football club creates an irreconcilable conflict of interest and renders the person ineligible to hold a football agent licence.
📄 FFAR Article 5
D — The name of the parties, the amount of the service fee due to the football agent and the parties' signatures
FFAR Article 16 requires that a representation agreement contain at minimum: the full names of the parties, the agreed service fee, and the signatures of all parties. A penalty clause is not a mandatory element — it is optional.
