1. Licensing & Regulation

JNM Football operates under the leadership of a fully licensed FIFA Football Agent, authorised under the FIFA Football Agent Regulations (FFAR) to represent players in professional football matters where required.

JNM Football only performs regulated agent services (contract negotiation, representation, and transfer-related work) when a player has signed a formal Representation Agreement, as mandated by FIFA.

2. Consulting Services vs. Agent Services

JNM Football offers two distinct types of services:

A. Consulting Services (Non-FIFA Regulated)

These services include:

• trial sourcing & introductions
• networking support
• player profile development (CV, highlight reel, scouting material)
• career strategy
• mentorship
• opportunity recommendations
• logistics guidance
• communication support
• online coaching for player development
• teaching of networking skills
• ongoing football education

These are non-regulated services under FIFA rules and can be legally offered to players without a Representation Agreement and with an upfront fee.

JNM Football does not negotiate contracts or represent players in regulated matters during consulting-only engagements.

B. FIFA-Regulated Agent Services

When a player chooses to be represented for a contract negotiation, JNM Football:

• signs a FIFA-compliant Representation Agreement
• follows commission rules
  
• works within FFAR guidelines
  
• represents the player legally in contract discussions
  

Agent services only begin once the player officially appoints JNM Football as their agent.

3. No Guaranteed Contracts

JNM Football never guarantees contracts, signings, salaries, or club decisions.

We guarantee:

• continuous support
• continued work until a trial is secured (where applicable)
• transparent communication
• professional guidance
• ethical operations

But the ultimate decision to sign a player ALWAYS belongs to the club.

This is fully aligned with FIFA regulations.

4. Trial Introductions

JNM Football provides trial introductions, not contract offers.

A “trial” is not a legally-binding football contract.

For consulting clients:

• we do not negotiate terms
• we do not act as their agent
  
• we do not interfere with the club’s internal decision-making
  
• we simply facilitate an introduction

This is fully legal and permitted under FIFA rules.

5. Fees & Transparency

JNM Football is fully transparent about service fees.

Upfront fees for consulting services are:

• legally permitted
  
• standard practice across the football industry
  
• not regulated by FFAR
  
• not considered agent commission
  

Commission is only charged during FIFA-regulated representation, and only after the player signs a professional contract.

6. Ethical Standards

JNM Football commits to:

• honest and realistic expectations
  
• no pressure sales tactics
  
• no false promises
  
• no exploitation
  
• no fraudulent claims
  
• no paid trials
  
• no payments to clubs for player placement
  
• no conflicts of interest
  
• no working with minors without full legal compliance
  

We operate with full transparency and player protection as core values.

7. Contact & Verification

Players, clubs, or parents may request:

• proof of FIFA agent licence
  
• clarification of service type
  
• details of compliant processes
  

JNM Football maintains open communication for all compliance-related questions.
