Description
'Lifting the lid' on the world of the football agent - is it all that it is made out to be, or is there more to a stereotypical 'shadowy' world of alleged 'sharks' and 'cowboys'?
Two experienced practitioners from the football agency world, along with specialist sports and football industry guests, aim to look into the truths, lies and misinterpretations of an industry that is often misunderstood and misrepresented.
From speculation in the football transfer market to football governance and the wider effects of the football agent industry, The Agents Angle aims to 'shed some light'.

45 Episodes
Reverse
The season finale of 'The Agents Angle' features the second part of our interview with a former FIFA official who played a crucial part in trying to sculpt a fair and workable infrastructure for the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations); covering aspects such as the agents platform and FIFA agents exam.
Plus, we examine the surprise of not only agents and those outside of FIFA, but also FIFA officials themselves as to why the very important Licensed FIFA Football Agents directory is still 'down for maintenance'.
There is also valuable advice and guidance for future FIFA football agent exam candidates as to how the exam is structured, where to focus efforts …... as well as some guidance that may seem too basic and ultimately that some candidates may neglect.
And seeing as this is the last episode of Season 1 of 'The Agents Angle', we not only take time to reflect on a season dominated by FFAR; but more importantly we look to what is ahead in the football agent world, that will bring not only challenges but also hopefully many improvements and opportunities.

Much of the focus on the FIFA Football Agent Regulations (FFAR) has rightly been from the perspective of football agents, however, what has been the experience of many of those within FIFA tasked with developing the FFAR?
In this episode of The Agent's Angle, we are privileged to be joined by Tarik Ajanovic, a former FIFA official from the Agents Department; for a first-hand account of the challenges, thoughts, & experiences from a rarely heard perspective.
Where do Football Agent Associations now sit in the football eco-system & how are they performing in terms of representing not just their members, but the football agent industry as a whole? Not least, whether their efforts are good enough for FIFA & others in football to view agents as 'stakeholders'.
There is also a look at the latest circular from FIFA featuring the AWG (Agent Working Group), agent exam, & agent licensing fees.
We also have news from elsewhere, that new government legislation could see football agents classified as 'employment agencies' a& subject to further compliance and regulation.

What can be expected from fast-approaching 'transfer windows' and will the football transfer market see records broken yet again? As well as looking at the trends envisaged by some, 'The Agents Angle' is joined by Chris Atkins of TMJ, the agent of Bay FC's record signing in the NWSL, Racheal Kundananji. We learn from Chris's insights on that deal, as well as the changes and challenges posed in the world of women's football agency.
There is also a look at reports from inside the FIFA Agent Working Group; with licensing & exam pass rates, agent investigations PLUS reports of FIFA seeking 'friends' amongst the agents with some agent groups reportedly offered MOUs by FIFA.

The case of the agent for one of the 'hottest' players in this summer '24 transfer window is fined and suspended for breaches of the intermediary (agent) regulations from more than 4 years ago - along with a club, and club officials also being sanctioned.
More problems for FIFA, with another ruling against the FFAR in Argentina and reports of the 3rd FFAR football agents exam being subject to marking errors.
The show also looks to answer listener questions covering topics such as penalty clauses for players in contracts, approaching players, using RSTP and FFAR correctly and whether old agents can regain their agent license.
And there is of course 'quick takes', looking at tax breaks for Mbappe and co in Madrid, FIFA welcoming agents into the 'Football Family', a new mega-agency emerging, and how one sports agent's own personal brand has secured them a lucrative deal.

'The Agents Angle' is joined by Football Finance 'guru' and co-host of the 'Price of Football' podcast Kieran Maguire, with his expert insights, thoughts, and observations on the football agent world from a finance perspective - as well as how new football finance matters affect agents.
As many football seasons around the world come to a close, and with the imminent opening of many football 'transfer windows', the so called 'silly season' begins with much speculation and rumour. So with this, 'The Agents Angle' examines whether the involvement of agents in transfer strategy for clubs distorts the transfer system.
Plus, the show investigates whether an increasing involvement of agents in the recruitment of managers and coaches by clubs may prompt concerns for unhealthy 'conflicts of interest'.
Whilst one agent reportedly 'pockets' 1 million from Lionel Messi's signature on a napkin, another coach and agent find themselves in dispute with a club over a contract signed hurriedly in a hospital car-park.

Could the football world be on the brink of another change that is comparable to the 'Bosman' ruling of 1995? FIFA regulations face another challenge that impacts the football agent industry and could even spell the end of the 'transfer system' (and RSTP) as we know it ....... and it isn't 'FFAR' this time.
Whilst a football agent is cleared by a court on criminal charges of 'sending malicious communications' to a club official, we look at the record-keeping and communication standards that agents should maintain, especially with increased scrutiny expected by the tax authorities on matters of dual-representation (duality) as per official guidance released this last week.
Plus, a 'superstar' player confesses to missing his late friend and agent, and there are player unions reportedly taking action against clubs for the 'abuse' of players.

Whilst one agency/agent is instructed by a court to pay a former player-client almost 5 MILLION euros in 'compensation', statements from Gianni Infantino in recent weeks criticising the outlay by English Premier League Clubs on agent service fees, but are these claims based on a false narrative? The Agents Angle examines the credibility of the FIFA president's comments, in particular the seemingly unjustified claims that FIFA 'Solidarity' and 'Training Compensation' payments to clubs developing players, are negatively affected by football agent commissions.
There is a look at Italy with Italian Sports Lawyer Alessandro Mazzucato on the matter of football agent licensing and regulation, where the landscape although similar to France in that national legislation over-rules FIFA regulation, it also has its own variations in football agent regulations and licensing that agents need to be aware of.
Plus a look at FIFA 'backing down' in the face of one legal challenge; and also an examination of the new FIFA Digital Agent ID 'Cards' for FIFA Licensed Football Agents, and whether a seemingly well intentioned initiative from FIFA 'falls short' and potentially leads to unintended problems for NOT JUST agents, through factors such as data-theft and the manipulation by the likes of 'fake agents'.

The football agent world remains largely confused on the current state of agent regulations. Yet one country that does offer some stability is France, but with that stability also comes strict laws and regulations for all agents operating in the French football market.
'The Agents Angle' is joined by Jean-Baptiste Ginies to highlight many aspects of French law and football agent regulations that agents should be aware of.
Also, following the release of the annual agent declarations by The FA (England), it is reported that one English Premier League club paid £75m in agents/intermediary fees in just one year. Yet, is it all that it seems with these reports; or do such reports subsequently raise more questions than answers?

A shocking admission on 'The Agents Angle' this week, which acknowledges the possibility of 'some' logic and 'method in the madness' of FIFA with the FFAR and the cap on agent commissions.
Could the increasing US influence on the world of football also be reflected in a changing mindset & approach from FIFA, not least the move of FIFA's agent and legal division to Miami which has led to numerous resignations and departures from FIFA?
We also revisit the 'Relevent' case in the USA, and the huge ramifications which that could have for FIFA and agents around the world.
Also, how some 'agents are now viewed as more important than football directors', and a sporting director recruiting a whole team without calling a single agent.

This week on 'The Agents Angle' there is a look at the subject of football agent education and professional development - from the phase of preparing for the FIFA Football Agents exam through to fine-tuning the agent skill set for a very competitive industry.
The show welcomes UEFA Academy Programme Manager Stephane Ehrhart, who takes us through the 'UEFA Player Agents Programme', which covers topics from player identification and statistical analysis through to negotiation and other agent industry skills.
And in the last week before the application deadline for the 3rd FIFA Football Agents exam, there is a look at the courses that claim to help candidates pass the exam, as they commence their football agent journey.
Also, news on regulation changes in England and the UK, with a new football regulator confirmed and the English Premier League (EPL) bringing in new cost controls; as well as a look at why 'bugs' seemingly persist in the FIFA Agents Platform and FIFA agent CPD, failing to live up to expectations. Plus, the 'Relevant' anti-competition case in the USA against the USSF and FIFA, that could impact cases against FFAR and the capping of agent fees.

***UNSCHEDULED EPISODE & EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW ***
Following a week where a FIFA appeal over an injunction blocking the introduction of new football agent regulations was rejected by a court in Germany, 'The Agents Angle' presents an unscheduled bonus episode on the injunction and FIFAs failed appeal over the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations).
Bringing you an exclusive interview with Michael Frank, one of the agents who led that challenge - a case that resulted in an injunction that arguably gave FFAR its first 'bloody nose', and prompted other such challenges and subsequent blows to FIFA's problematic agent regulation proposals.
And whilst this could be perceived by some as the 'beginning of the end' for FFAR as we know it, the European 'elephant in the room' that is seemingly FIFA's 'last hope', is still lurking in the shadows and could potentially make matters far worse for everyone in the future.

'The Agents Angle' is joined in this episode by someone considered by many to be one of football's current 'super-agents', and one of the most prominent voices in the football agent world, Rafaela Pimenta.
As well as being the agent for superstar players such as Erling Haaland (of Manchester City) and Henrikh Mkhitaryan (of Inter Milan), Rafaela talks to the show about 'The Football Forum', including the aims, objectives and challenges that face TFF (as a Global body for football agents and players) and the wider agent world, especially with the problems created by the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations).
This includes, asking whether FIFA has employed a 'divide and conquer' strategy towards agents, whether FIFA's stance on FFAR is 'softening' and also considers the role of agent education, the 'manipulation' of the public image of agents and how TFF is not a 'Gentleman's Club' as some perceive it to be.
'The Agents Angle' also looks at the news that another 'superagent' and legend of the football agent world has announced their retirement. PLUS, other reports where agents are quitting the industry, or looking to change roles to become amongst other things, Sporting Directors with football clubs.

The aspect of Player Care has evolved rapidly in football in recent times, and should be recognised as an important factor for any conscientious football agent, club and player.
Yet, what role do agents have in the provision of player care, and do agents really appreciate and understand the value of player care and the role of player liaison professionals within clubs?
'The Agents Angle' welcomes @Hugo Scheckter as this episode's guest; a vastly experienced player care professional with many English Premier League clubs and now a trainer of many of those working in Player Care as well as an advisor to many elite clubs on their player care provisions.
'The Agents Angle' also takes a look at reports of an 'out of court' settlement between an agent and club, in a long-running dispute over the transfer of Emiliano Sala from FC Nantes to Cardiff City FC which sadly ended in tragedy. Could more robust player care provisions have helped possibly avert the disputes, but more importantly the tragic outcome?
The aspect of multiple agents being involved in a single transfer also brings 'under the spotlight' the topic of 'mandates'. What are they, how can they be used, how are they structured and what are the implications and considerations for football agents, clubs, and footballers in using mandates around the world?

Following the recent closure of the (January) 'transfer window' in many parts of the world, a quieter 'window' than normal for many agents, 'The Agents Angle' examines - is it a case of clubs being more cautious due to various factors impacting on finances? And could it see a shift towards a more American, if not 'Feast or Famine' approach by clubs to player recruitment?
Coinciding with the closing of the 'transfer window'; FIFA held their annual FLAR (FIFA Law Annual Review) in Tokyo, which although not etched in many agent's diaries ..... agent-related matters featured prominently on the agenda.
As such, 'The Agents Angle' looks at matters discussed at the FLAR and updates relating to the agent's world; from regulation (FFAR) to transfers, club finances to tax as well as a senior FIFA official 'labelling' the topic of agents as "amazing and interesting".
There is also the case of a 'collapsed' transfer in the recent 'transfer window' that was reported to be because of a dispute relating to agent representation of the player; and the need for adequate independent dispute resolution for agents when such matters arise.

With the introduction of the new football agent license by FIFA (as part of FFAR), there are reports of players 'sacking' their agents, or 'walking away' and/or 'dissolving' existing representation agreements and contracts.
Agents are rumoured to be circling one Manchester United star of the future, and another former United player 'sacking' family members as his agents; 'The Agents Angle' examines this phenomenon and looks at the huge threat that it creates for those formerly 'Registered Intermediaries' who are now unlicensed, and others who may still have existing agreements with clients.
This episode also looks at prominent clauses in transfer agreements that all agents should be aware of, especially during a transfer window. From 'buy-out' clauses and more complex 'loan' arrangements, to 'buy back' clauses and 'sell-ons'.
Also, the show looks at signs of FIFA possibly extending their agent team on relocating to Miami, with an advertised role with FIFA for a new 'Education and Licensing Manager' of Football Agents, which could be very suitable for someone from the agent's world, who understands this complex and nuanced football agent industry.

Mexican football has a huge following with the excitement of Liga MX and Liga MX Femenil, but what is the landscape like for football agents operating in Mexico? 'The Agents Angle' is joined by FIFA Licensed Football Agent and Sports Lawyer María García Cornejo Alvarez to share her knowledge and experiences from the Mexican Football World.
There is a look at an unsavoury incident, whereby a prominent name from the football agency world has reported being subject to prejudice and racism by a club, and we look at what repercussions this may bring for the club in question.
Plus, we ask the question - Are There Too Many, or Too Few Football Agents to adequately support the football world around the globe? - with one nation seemingly reporting a 20% increase (150) in domestically licensed football agents in just 12 days!

"In this world, nothing is certain, apart from death and taxes", and the core subject for this episode is something that neither superstar players such as Cristiano Ronaldo nor football agents are immune from ........ tax !!!!. We are joined by football tax specialist Peter Fairchild, to look at the tax landscape for football agents operating in the English Premier League and the other leagues in the UK. Plus, we take a look at some of the tax implications from the new FIFA Football Agent Regulations (FFAR), where at this moment in time things are far from certain.
Whilst FIFA Circular #1873 regarding FFAR was released a few weeks ago, it confused many on the suspensions announced in regard to the new agent regulations. So, 'The Agents Angle' also examines another circular released by FIFA in recent days, that aims to provide some clarity to the confusion over the FIFA Football Agent Regulation suspensions.
Yet, with the negative impact that FIFA's implementation of FFAR has had on agents and agencies around the world; could FIFA be liable for losses and damages suffered by agents, with reports of an impending court case?

Just when agents and others in the football worldthought it was safe to think there was some certainty on FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations) at least for the new transfer window, FIFA delivered a circular that has sent the football agent world into yet more confusion and bewilderment.
Yet whilst FIFA Circular #1873 has prematurely prompted celebration and euphoria for some in the football world, The Agents Angle examines if the announcement of the suspension on aspects of the hotly disputed new football agent regulations is all that it seems, or whether it is understandably causing confusion and differences of opinion.
Whilst the core issue of the cap on agent commissions/fees does seem to be suspended, the announcement on FFAR with its seeming contradictions prompts other questions and confusion.
Also, what is the impact of these changes on agents and the wider football world with many transfer windows around the world now open? - How are National Football (member) Associations to handle this latest twist in the FFAR saga, and the implementation of their own national regulations at such a busy time?

As a busy year (2023) in the agent's world draws to a close, the last week has been more frenetic than ever with key meetings held and huge decisions reached on the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations), or further clarification given on past rulings.
This episode of 'The Agents Angle' examines whether there could be signs of FIFA relenting and the cap on agent commissions as part of FFAR being suspended.
The meeting of the FIFA Agent Working Group in Saudi Arabia this last week also prompted news of a memorandum of understanding between FIFA and Agents (as stakeholders), a reduction in the license fee, and a 'crackdown' on unlicensed agents; amongst other things.
There is also news of another ruling against the FFAR by a huge football nation as well as another National Association elsewhere rumoured not to be applying the cap on agent commissions nationally.
And with the FIFA 'Football Agents in International Transfers' report released in time for the 1st anniversary of the approval of FFAR by FIFA Council, we ask whether this is a coincidence, as well as whether the report is an anomaly and an inaccurate portrayal of the football agent's world, with the shadow of FFAR and the challenges to it.

With the next transfer window opening in approximately 2 weeks for many, what can be expected and how did agents rate the best and worst signings of the last window, only to be branded as 'muppets' by a pundit? Whilst one of the worlds highest profile football agents (Rafaela Pimenta) demonstrates a masterclass in how to transfer speculation and rumour when questioned by the media.
The FIFA 'BEST' Awards come to London, but still no sign of an agent award or any acknowledgement, whilst an agent elsewhere gets inducted into a sporting 'Hall of Fame' for their efforts and hard work.
Yet, how do you judge an agent and who are the wealthiest, worthiest and most famous football agents in the world? - a 'Top 10' poll revealed.
And whilst FIFA host a crucial Agent Working Group (AWG) meeting in Saudi Arabia, they also have to contend with the breaking news that a Court rejects their appeal on FFAR.
