RESUMO

The main objective of this doctoral thesis is to study the legal aspects of the sports agent and the way they relate with the Brazilian Civil Law, focusing on the agent that takes care of a soccer players career, who is called FIFA Player Agent. FIFA, which is the International Federation with jurisdiction over soccer, enacted an official ruling regarding the activities performed by a soccer player agent, requiring each member to establish a regulation itself, bringing your account, as well as national legislation and international treaties. Based on this complex set of international laws, rules, acts, resolutions and clauses, we intend to review the juridical relationship between the FIFA Player Agent and its main client, the professional soccer player, in various aspects. Initially, this work will define who this agent is, by approaching the historic background of this activity, the main activities performed in the past to date. Then the rules, laws, and the main bills in procedural progress, nationally and internationally, will be dully analyzed. After that, we will assess the characteristics and various possibilities of legal classification of the relationship between the agent and the athlete, under the civil legislation (Agency Agreement, Power of Attorney, Services Agreement, Brokerage, applicability of the Brazilian Consumer Code), and the interaction with the legal attorney job so that, at the end, we can properly classify the agent in accordance with the appropriate legal nature of the activities performed. Before the final considerations, we will also briefly analyze, only for the purposes of establishing a comparative study, the rules applicable in some countries such as Portugal, Italy and United States of America. With regard to the US rules, we will also review some other different sports.
