In this packed episode of The Agents Angle, we address growing confusion around football agents representing minors — and the wider implications of a recent European ruling.
We discuss age-fraud claims involving Manchester United and Manchester City, and examine how international differences in regulation are impacting agents globally.
Our guest, U.S. based FIFA-licensed agent @Jeremy Salley, joins us to unpack the unique dynamics of the American soccer market, the role of talent managers, MLS structures, CBAs, NIL, and more.
Plus: changes to FIFA’s Agent Platform and shifting dynamics within the FIFA Agent Working Group. ⚽🎧
