The agents of Liverpool stars such as Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cody Gakpo were present in London on Wednesday to sit crucial exams to determine whether they could keep their licence practice.
As part of FIFA’s decision to regulate the agent industry once again after it was deregulated in 2015, agents are now required to sit an hour-long examination to determine their competency, with those sitting needing to get 75 per cent or above in order to pass.
The UK examinations were held at the ExCel Centre in London on Wednesday, with agents such as Tyler Alexander-Arnold and Carl Thomas both attending to sit their exams. Globally, more than 6,500 agents registered to sit the exam on the same day from 138 member associations at various approved locations around the world.
