This is certainly progress and a welcome 'step in the right direction' with regards to digital-IDs for licensed football agents - so 'hats off' to The Football Association in England (The FA) 👏 . With these new digital-IDs due to 'go-live' next week on the 16th December. From the information released thus far, it seems that this form of digital ID (with the purported supporting mechanisms) is less open to manipulation and subversion. 🔎 Yet only time will tell, if that is going to be the case, and the actual implementation, education (of participants) and ongoing development is key.🧐 'Credit where credit is due' #TheFA, a step in the right direction and we believe a positive step for not just any #FootballAgent licensed in England; but all #football participants and stakeholders including players, clubs, managers and coaches. 👍
