Entangled in Uncertain Real Madrid Future, Kylian Mbappe and 49YO Mother Face Massive Setback, as FIFA Introduces New Norms

Real Madrid’s pursuit of Kylian Mbappe has seen another twist. Mbappe stayed in France with PSG earlier this summer, despite being heavily linked with a move to Spain throughout the summer window. Now, Madrid and their pursuit of Mbappe has witnessed another hitch. This time due to agent regulations passed by FIFA.

In spite of Los Blancos having funds in place to sign Mbappe and another player, Mbappe remained in Paris with PSG. On this note, however, Mbappe’s mother, 49-year-old Fayza Lamari would likely have to forgo being the French superstar’s agent.

Kylian Mbappe’s mother who is his agent must fulfill agent criteria as per FIFA’s ruling

As reported by Spanish media outlet Marca, Mbappe’s mother Fayza Lamari, who has been his agent throughout his career so far, is not on the listed FIFA Agent Platform, in the directory of official FIFA agents. This entails that the 49-year-old mother to her son Kylian, cannot represent him or any other soccer player as an agent. Furthermore, she cannot negotiate a contract or even charge commission fees.

The Marca report further states that Lamari must get her license by May 2024 by passing the relevant and required exams to become an official FIFA-listed agent. So at the moment, should Mbappe secure a move to Real Madrid or elsewhere or renew his contract with PSG, his mother Lamari would not be able to be involved or charge any agent fees.

Meanwhile, for the French forward Mbappe, the stats reveal that he is right up there with the best in the world.

A report has stated that Mbappe has led both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in goals & assists over the past 5 years. Meanwhile, the soccer stats app Sofascore also released a list of players who have received the most 10/10 match ratings, in which Mbappe is 3rd.

Mbappe has racked up 319 goals & assists over the past 5 years, eclipsing superstars Messi who has 295 G + A, and Ronaldo who has 195 G + A, and thus leading the charts for goals and assists globally over the previous 5 seasons.

Meanwhile, the Sofascore rankings reveal Mbappe as 3rd with 10 perfect 10 match ratings compared to Ronaldo’s 8 perfect 10 match ratings which see the Portuguese star in 8th in the rankings, as Messi is 1st with 36 10/10 ratings.

Nevertheless, stats aside it’s certain that Mbappe will look to win some trophies with PSG before he leaves the Parisian club for pastures anew, whether to Real Madrid or elsewhere.
