Frequently asked questions

Choose an agent who knows your league and the clubs recruiting your profile, check their FIFA licence and sign a written contract. With PPM, send your position, your club and a contact through the “I'm looking for an agent” form: an agent will call you back within 48 hours.

Since 1 October 2023, an agent who negotiates contracts or transfers must hold a personal FIFA licence, obtained after an exam and kept up through continuing education. FIFA advises asking the agent for their digital licence card. Be wary of any intermediary who refuses to show it.

Be wary of any request for money upfront: plane tickets, “trial fees” or file fees. The agent's pay must be written in the representation contract, and you must know exactly what you will pay before signing.

Under the FIFA agent regulations, a representation contract between a player and an agent lasts two years at most. It does not renew by itself: a new contract has to be signed. It must be in writing and state the parties, the duration, the pay and the services.

The pay is set in the written contract, as an amount or a percentage. FIFA has adopted commission caps, but their application is being challenged in court: always ask for the exact figure in writing before signing.

A foreign club recruits on evidence: full-match videos, season statistics, a clear contract situation. An agent presents your file to clubs looking for your profile and follows the transfer through to the international transfer certificate between federations. PPM players already play in Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco and Europe.

A free player signs without a transfer fee, which interests many clubs. For an international transfer, a player may commit to a new club in the last six months of their contract. Prepare your videos and statistics and contact an agent before the transfer window opens.

Position and preferred foot, height, age, club and contract end date, statistics for the last two seasons, two or three videos (one full match and your best actions) and a reliable contact. The PPM player profiles follow this format.

Open the player's profile and use the “Talk about this player” form, or write to us from the contact form. PPM replies within 24 working hours with the player's file.

The “Free players” page lists PPM players without a club or whose contract ends soon, with their position, age and contract end date. It is updated automatically every day.

They come from public data (Transfermarkt) and are kept up to date by PPM. A market value is an indicative estimate, not a transfer price.

A person who represents a player, a coach or a club in a contract or transfer negotiation, holding a licence issued by FIFA after an exam. The licence is personal (an agency cannot hold one) and allows you to work worldwide.
