FIFA announced plans to negotiate with stakeholders on the transfer system following a ruling by the European Union declaring some regulations unlawful, aiming to redesign Article 17.
The European Court of Justice noted that current rules hinder professional footballers' ability to move freely, impacting their opportunities for career development, prompting FIFA's acknowledgment of needed amendments.
While FIFA stated only certain aspects of the transfer rules would be affected, the legal team representing Lassana Diarra believes the entire transfer system could undergo significant changes.
FIFA is committed to incorporating feedback from all relevant parties to better shape its regulatory framework, as expressed by Chief Legal & Compliance Officer Emilio Garcia Silvero.
