Argentine football operates under a layered framework: the professional footballer statute and labour rules, AFA regulations, and above them the FIFA Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players, whose disputes end before the FIFA Football Tribunal and, on appeal, the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne under Swiss law. Clubs, players and agents dealing with Argentina need advisers fluent in all three layers at once.
Transfers and international deals
- Transfer, loan and buy-out agreements, with payment schedules and guarantees
- Sell-on clauses, image rights allocation and third-party influence limits
- TMS filings, ITC requests and federative deadlines
- Training compensation and the solidarity mechanism
Disputes before FIFA and CAS
Claims for unpaid instalments or unilateral termination are brought before the FIFA Football Tribunal, with appeals to CAS. Deadlines are short and mostly non-extendable, and the evidentiary record is built long before the claim is filed.
Agents, image rights and sponsorship
Representation agreements, commission structures and the exploitation of image, merchandising and broadcasting rights, coordinated with the tax treatment of payments abroad.
