FA Approves New Season Rules for Foreigners
The Board of Directors of the Jordan Football Association approved the regulations for the 2026/2027 season, which included rules governing player and technical staff registrations, along with changes to policies regarding foreigners and Palestinian players. The regulations allow for the registration of one Palestinian national team player, provided they have participated in at least six official international matches. They also prohibit the registration of non-Jordanian goalkeepers in local teams. Registration periods are set from July to September 2026, and from January to the end of that month in the following year. The regulations permit registering four foreign players in the first team and two in each youth category, with restrictions preventing them from playing with the first team. Additionally, the head coach in the professional league must hold an Asian Coaching Certificate (PRO), and if the coach is non-Jordanian, their assistant must be Jordanian.
