A group who claim technical problems with Fifa’s online football agent exam prevented them from completing the test are to take their cases to the court of arbitration for sport.
As revealed last month in the Guardian, dozens of prospective agents complained there were various issues with the platform being used for the new global exam that took place for the first time on 18 June. That included candidates left with insufficient time to answer the questions and later finding out that multiple answers had not been recorded. Some were allowed to resit the exam on 30 June, but many were informed they will have to wait until next year and had no right to appeal.
