Deckard 13 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 No way any agent owns a private jet. They'll maybe lay one on when they expect a big pay day but that's as close as it gets. I thought his agent was Pini Zahavi who is as rich as agents get. I always think this about agents. If an agent gets a percentage, how many players does he have to move to earn more than a footballer in that year? I bet it's not that many. Some will even get a percentage of the contract rather than a one off fee. I'm sure whoever brokers the massive moves will be earning more in that one deal than the player will in a year.

Honest question as I don't really know what they do except negotiate salary and stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Unless you're very good at negotiating and have a good sense of the market, you'd be much better off with an agent. Sure you have to give the little scrote a percentage, but then he can rinse the fuck out of the client on your behalf. The most halmful thing is moves being encouraged when they aren't to the benefit of the player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Scholes didn't have agent either, loads of talk about him sticking on 50k a week at Man Utd as he'd just say 'give me the same as before, not really bothered about negotiating '. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair if your at one of the biggest clubs winning trophies consistently and are happy with £50k per week (which for the majority of his career was on the high end of pay scale for footballers), then there is little reason to move and little reason to negotiate.

I also guess most of the agents pick their clients up when they are in their teens and as a teen you have no clue about how the world works so you'd need the help. Aye, there has to be loads (all?) of agents who only want to make money so they promote moves that isn't in the players best interest. Sad, but that's the world today I guess.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 It's a good job they let us sign both Mitrovic and Wijnaldum or we really would be in a mess. It's so useful that Sunderland are above both of those players and they're happy for them to come and play for us! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
