FIFA Transfer Rules Change January 1

Effective January 1, FIFA's new Transfer Status Regulations will introduce major modifications to protected transfer periods based on player age. The changes affect all professional footballers worldwide.

Previously, protected periods varied by age group: under 23 years had 4 seasons/years, 23-27 years had 3 seasons/years, 28-31 years had 2 seasons/years, and 32+ had 1 season/year. These structures will be updated under the new regulations. fish-roadgame.com
