#15: Agent Pressuring Player Over Premier League Move, Results in a Ban - Can a Club Ban Players from Having Agents? - Senior Sports Journalist & Their Perspective of the Football Agent World
Manage episode 380518119 series 3496103
On this week's episode of 'The Agents Angle' we talk about how a dispute between an agent and a player started with a disagreement over a transfer to an English Premier League club and has now 'snowballed' into a wider dispute and a ban for the agent involved. We also look at a report from Germany where a club has reportedly taken steps to avoid youth football agents.
The show's special guest this week is Senior Sports Writer for The Athletic, Matt Slater - who brings his insights on the football agent world and a different perspective on football agents and their role in the football industry, including how that 'Pogba Deal' may have incited FIFA to reregulate agents, the impact of 'Bosman' on the football agent's world and whether it was the media who created the 'Super Agents'.
Also, we highlight reports of a scam of fake FIFA Agent Licenses that seems to be fooling some trying to enter the agent's industry, as well as an update on new NFAR (National Football Agent Regulations) from around the world, this week includes Mexico, Poland and the home of FIFA; Switzerland.
