Starting today, we’ll be verifying every FIFA Agents licence. To maintain active functionality access, ensure your licence QR code links to directly to your FIFA Portal.

We’ve seen numerous licences showing invalid status year after year. Within 48 hours, your licence will be denied access to the platform until the issues are resolved. This maintains safeguarding control.

Remember, sharing your licence or uploading it to others without it being active can damage your business and reputation.

There are several issues you can experience for this error. If you are struggling, and you experience any issues with your FIFA licence validation, then our team is here to help. The portal on the FIFA platform can be extremely temperamental, therefore we have seen vast amounts of licence issues their side which we validate against.

If you do come to us for help, please ensure before contacting our team as this is an extremely busy period of quality and assurance:

1. Your licence is paid and showing completed
2. Your CPD requirement is showing completed.
3. You have no sanctions, or suspensions made against you.

With today’s huge news breaking on Manchester City Football Club being found guilty in a statement released by The Premier League, we wanted to dive into the high level findings, and what could come next.

On 29 September 2026, the Premier League announced the official findings of an independent commission. This confirmed that Manchester City systematically broke financial regulations over a nine-season period from 2009/10 to 2017/18.

Key findings of the commission include:

👕 Sham Contracts: The commission discovered that City created fake commercial partnerships and disguised funding schemes to artificially inflate club revenues and reduce costs. Out of approximately £950 million claimed in commercial income, over £830 million was illicitly funded directly by the club’s Abu Dhabi owners.

👕 Concealed Accounts: The club was found to have filed misstated financial accounts to deliberately conceal its true financial position from auditors and football regulators.

👕 Spending Limit Breaches: The artificially inflated income enabled City to significantly breach both The Premier League and UEFA spending limits.

👕 Non-Cooperation: City was also found guilty of the majority of charges related to a failure to cooperate with the Premier League’s multi-year investigation. Out of the original 115 charges, they were found guilty on 114.

Potential sanctions have not yet been finalised. A separate private hearing with the independent commission will determine the penalty. Given the scale of the deception, the Premier League has the power to impose unprecedented punishments:

👕 Severe Point Deductions: These could lead to relegation.

👕 Massive Financial Penalties and Fines: These could result in expulsion from the Premier League.

👕 Title Stripping: Titles won during the nine-season period (2012, 2014 and 2018) could be stripped.

What happens next?

Manchester City issued an immediate statement expressing their disappointment and surprise at the verdict while maintaining their innocence. They have until Friday 2 October 2026 to formally lodge an appeal. This appeal will be heard by a new three-person commission. Since the club can’t take the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) for Premier League matters, this domestic appeal will be the final step in the legal process.

This is going to be a huge period for everyone involved, before the club face a huge Super Sunday trip to Anfield on the 11th October 2026.

For a long time, I’ve mentioned two straightforward yet urgently needed implementations:

▪️Offside anywhere across the line: This would significantly reduce review time and make decisions much clearer. If you’re on the pitch, then you are effecting the game, and interfearing with play by virtue of being on the pitch, regardless of where you are on the field, or what phase of play it is.

▪️Review of each referee / officials per game, week, month and season. This MUST be happening currently?

We want to know:

- How many decisions are overturned by VAR.
- How many monitor sends referees receive.
- How many decisions overturned at monitor.
- How many on-field decisions referees stick to at monitor.
- How many decisions missed by both referee and VAR, such as yesterday’s offside in the Manchester Derby.
- * Overall percentage of decisions made vs overturned.

* If the overall percentage is over 50%, the officials should be demoted a level.

Is there enough responsibility on the referee and their assistants during the game? Or has VAR become too protective, allowing referees to avoid making difficult calls?

I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Are you a FIFA Licenced Football Agent? Or are you a FIFA Licence Holder?

There are 100s and 1000s of people entering a flooded market of Licence holders, but the vast majority have no effect on the industry.

Why? Because many simply hold a licence after passing the difficult exam, and have very little to offer clients, clubs, and the football business.

Why would clubs or players already at clubs, making money sign with you? With very little experience? It’s a huge risk for them.

Sure you have made connections with Agent educators, and other students but how do you sign players? Coming into this business you need a plan, help, and ideas. Most agent creators will get you through the exam, and set you free, but there are some who will mentor you post exam, help you navigate the business, and importantly have a plan.

We created a PDF to help people pre / post exam. We also created a directory of 1000s of clients who need representation, help, and support, which you can access for FREE!

If you enter this business thinking you just need to pass an exam, then you will become one of the licence holders.

Want connecting to trusted people who can mentor you? Educate you? And a directory of 1000s of clients who are ready to sign worldwide today? we can get you active in football at a level where you can operate successfully, growing your stable of clients, and intern your reputation.

If you want to be an agent, we can also help give you access to our mock exam, and direct access to trusted industry professionals to get you through the exam.

Simply DM me AGENT, and I will send you what you need. For those who are not yet agents send me a DM saying STUDENT and we will also send you what you need. For those who need an in depth scouting knowledge DM me SCOUT and we will pass you to industry scouting leaders to assist you in your observation skills.
