Under FIFA’s new regulations, it seems that Mbappé might need to find a new agent, and this could involve severing ties with his mother as his representative. The French football superstar is contemplating a transfer to Real Madrid in the upcoming summer transfer window.
This potential decision is driven by changes in regulations concerning player representatives. Mbappé’s mother, Fayza Lamari, has served as one of his representatives and played a crucial role in his record transfer from Monaco to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017. In recent times, she has been frequently drawn into transfer rumors surrounding her son, who remains in a state of potential departure from PSG. Paris Saint-Germain is eager to transfer him out to recoup a transfer fee before his contract expires next summer.
However, Mrs. Lamari, known for her tenacity as a representative, might be required to step aside from future negotiations due to rule changes. According to reports in the Spanish newspaper Marca, a new FIFA regulation stipulates that all representatives must be registered on the world football governing body’s database. As of now, Lamari is not on that list, which would disqualify her from representing football players, negotiating contracts, or receiving commissions.
Mbappé currently has no intentions of signing a new contract with PSG, which suggests that the French national team’s top star will likely seek a new destination in the future. Real Madrid is the primary candidate that Mbappé has in mind. We’ll have to wait and see if the 24-year-old star can make his dream move to the Spanish giants next summer.
