• There are a lot of things that the agent must
  consider in a transfer situation.
• First of all, remember that agents work for
  players, so players must agree about moving to a
  new club.
• But at the same time, agents are professionals
  and a player should listen to his agents advice.

3

• Take into consideration that looking for a club
  is much more that researching about a football
  team. Agents must consider the new country in
  case that the player has to move, the culture.
  Sometimes if there are other players of the same
  country it is good to ask them how they adapted
  to the city

• Of course, the agent will always look for good
  economic opportunities for the player who he
  represents. Many times theres a special
  commission for the agent or the agency who can
  improve the players salary or bonus.

• Many times players have to make decisions about
  their career.
• Maybe about playing a game when they dont feel
  in good condition or dealing with personal
  problems that affect their game. In this case the
  agent becomes the one who directs their career.

•  Especially with young players its always good
  to have someone with experience to give good
  advice.
• And this is why many times Football management
  agency have to work as psychologists.
• One agent said once that its important to
  listen to the players needs and adapt the words
  to each personality.

7

• A Football management agency is always a
  reference, so everything he says will reflect
  positively or negatively for the player.
• If there are false rumours the agent must clear
  things up when talking to the media.

8

• Players should only care about playing.
• And this is why they dont have the obligation to
  know about taxes. This is the Football management
  agency work.
• Some agencies usually have counters in their
  staff or they hire someone.

• Something similar happens with legal issues.
• Some Football management agency work with
  lawyers.
• But if not, its good to ask a lawyer about any
  complex thing in the players contracts.
