According to pronouncements by FIFA, every football contract is valid only upon the possession of 13 specific headings. In contrast, the regulations of Iran’s football federation lacks any particular minimum criteria for football contracts.
        This paper, while examining the minimum criteria of football contracts under the regulations of FIFA and Iran’s football federation, deals with the legal status of player’s internal contracts with clubs, particularly when they conflict with the official agreements of the players registered in football federation and reaches the conclusion that in case of conflict between the contents of internal contracts and the formal agreements registered in the football federation, the latter prevails. Also, it comes up with the findings that codification of a minimum standards for football contracts, the unification of the contents of such agreements, modernization of regulations applicable in the football field, and the removal of their ambiguities, are necessary and unavoidable.
