Eleven bullet points aren't a regulation — they're a summary. Your books were built responsibly around FIFA's own preliminary outline of the Diarra-ruling reform, with every uncertain detail clearly flagged rather than guessed at. This update sets that outline against FIFA's actual, restated RSTP text.

This isn't a rewrite or a new edition you have to buy. It's the next layer on the book you already own.

No proof of purchase. No account. Just your email — and the update lands in your inbox.

Why This Update Matters

At the time of publication, FIFA had released only an 11-point preliminary summary of the 2027 RSTP reform — the regulatory response to the Diarra ruling. Both Book 2 (Core Regulations) and Book 3 (Supporting Regulations) said so plainly, and treated that summary as background, not exam-ready fact. FIFA has since published the full, restated RSTP text. This free supplement puts that regulation alongside your books — the exact article wording, the defined terms, and the operative detail that turns "here's roughly what changed" into "here's exactly what you need to know." If you own Book 2, Book 3, or both, this update is for you. Your books remain correct for the exam: they test the January 2026 Study Materials, which is what FIFA examines until it issues new ones. This supplement covers the regulations that follow.

About Patrick Poldervaart

Patrick Poldervaart passed the FIFA Football Agent Exam himself in 2007 — on the first attempt, without a resit, one of the youngest ever to do so — and has worked as a FIFA-licensed agent ever since, with over 600 transfers and employment contracts behind him. He wrote the "How to Pass the FIFA Football Agent Exam" series to teach the method and the regulatory depth that actually gets candidates through it, not just a pile of practice questions. Keeping that series accurate matters to him more than most authors bother with. The moment FIFA's restated RSTP text was confirmed, this update was built — free, immediately, for everyone who already trusted the books enough to buy them.
