Lionel Messi may have to fire his father because of FIFA’s harsh new regulations

Jorge Messi, Lionel Messi’s father, continues to represent his son as his agent. However, in order to comply with FIFA’s new criteria, La Pulga will almost certainly need to find new representation.

Messi may have to fire his father because of FIFA's new regulations

During the summer transfer window of 2023, Lionel Messi moved his allegiance from Paris Saint-Germain to Inter Milan. He made an immediate impact by contributing to the team’s victory in the League Cup, which was the first championship the club had ever won.

Even though Messi just signed with the MLS team a few short months ago, there is a possibility that he will be sent out in the near future. It is anticipated that the Major League Soccer season will come to a close by the end of this month, and it won’t begin again until February of next year. Even if it’s only for the short term, Barca and clubs in Saudi Arabia are currently attempting to acquire Messi as a player.

In the event that a move does take place, it is anticipated that Messi’s father, Jorge, will play a central role in the discussions regarding his son’s future.

However, the new regulations implemented by FIFA may make it hard for Messi to continue allowing his father to act as his representative, as reported by the Spanish publication Marca. The player’s representative is required to have a valid working license in order to comply with FIFA regulations. In the meanwhile, Mr. Jorge does not yet possess any sort of operating license.

From the time the seven-time winner of the Golden Ball was a child until the time he became a famous player at the age of 36, this man, who is now 65 years old, managed the professional career of the winner of the Golden Ball seven times.

On the other hand, if Messi does not move to another team, it is likely that Mr. Jorge does not need to have a license to function as an agent.
