Player agents are an important part of football and today we compare the best eleven that could be ranked by the five most important representation agencies in the world.

Player agents are the fourth leg of each transfer.

In theory, they are employees of the footballers themselves, but they

have so much influence over them that the will of the stars does not always prevail over theirs

.

The clubs, both those who sell and those who buy, know that keeping them happy will mean, in many cases, keeping the player happy.

FIFA should recognize us and treat us appropriately.

No one from FIFA has been in my office or had a conversation with me.

If you ask the players what they want, they are in favor of the agents.

There are never any complaints about agent fees from players

Barnett

No one is aware that they have more and more power in the football transfer market. In 2019, the year before the pandemic, a study was published indicating that agents had charged € 590 million in transfer fees.

FIFA is working to regulate its activity.

In this new regulation, which is expected for January 1, 2022, FIFA will demand compliance with certain requirements to obtain the agent's license, the rights and obligations will be marked, there will be sanctions, the representation of minors will be regulated ... And, above all, there will be a limit on commissions.

10% of each transfer for the agents of the selling club, 3% of the player's salary for his agent and another 3% of the salary for the agent of the buying club.

Of course, the agents raised their voices against this measure and

AS

discussed the issue in a Forum of agents and representatives of footballers who explained their position.

But regardless of their war, what is most striking is the concentration of footballers around the big players.

Jorge Mendes and Raiola are two of the most famous, the first for having Cristiano Ronaldo on his agenda and the second for always being surrounded by controversy, but they are not the only ones.

In fact, it is an American company, Wasserman, that has the players with the highest market value followed closely by ICM Stellar Sports, Barnett's company.

And which of them has the best team?

We are going to compare them and see what elevences each representative could form.

Wasserman, the American sports marketing giant

This American multinational company entered the Spanish market with force in the

summer of 2020 with the purchase of Top Value

, a Spanish agency based in Valencia.

Thanks to this, they were made with players like Jaume Doménech, Grimaldo, Portu, Iborra, Barrenetxea ...

In this way it managed to expand into European football, but

this company is a giant in the world of representation.

For example, in the NBA they represent Westbrook, Klay Thompson or Sabonis.

And in music they bring artists of the stature of Drake, Ed Sheeran or Billie Eilish.

With a total of 708 registered players, they amount to a total of € 1,440,000 in market value according to

Transfermarkt

.

This is the best eleven he could get in a game, taking into account that he would leave names like

Lenglet, Barnes, Aké, Mings, McKennie, Grimaldo, Barkley, André Gomes

on the bench

...

And it even has coaches and managers!

Koeman, Van der Sar, Eddiw Howe, Gerrard, Cocu ...

ICM Stellar SportsBarnett, the most powerful agent in the world

Jonathan Barnett is a regular in the media in Spain for all the controversy generated by the figure of Bale in Real Madrid.

However, and beyond his recurrent explosive statements, he runs one of the largest representation agencies in the world.

According to

Forbes

, he is the most powerful agent.

Like Wasserman, he doesn't just focus on soccer.

Barnett, who started with cricket star Brian Lara, has cast his agency, Stellar Group, on

hundreds of soccer, track, boxing, rugby and NFL professionals, and has even made a first foray into the

e-sports

.

Interview with Jonathan Barnett

Aggressive professionally but generously personal, he admitted in an interview with this newspaper that each year he donates hundreds of thousands of euros to charitable causes with his partner.

In the world of sports, however, he is known as a tough and implacable negotiator, capable of even putting a hand on Florentino Pérez himself.

Despite the fact that its largest transfer is still that of the 101 million euros from Bale in 2013,

according to its latest results, the 1,114 million euros that it has signed in its contracts have generated the company 114.8 million euros in profits .

GestifutePortugal is by Jorge Mendes

Jorge Mendes is the agent par excellence in European football.

Taking Cristiano Ronaldo and appearing in the photo of five Ballons d'Or justifies it well

.

And its huge portfolio of clients, especially Portuguese, make up a very complete agency.

Uno de los casos más especiales de Gestifute es el del Wolverhampton. En 2016, cuando estaban en la segunda división inglesa los compró FOSUN Internacional, una empresa relacionada con el agente portugués. La inyección de dinero y la facilidad para adquirir futbolistas portugueses del más alto nivel dio sus frutos. Por ejemplo, el de Ruben Neves por casi 20 millones de euros. Cambió el Oporto por jugar en la Championship. Esta temporada cuentan con nueve portugueses más el entrenador y a todos ellos los lleva Jorge Mendes

Todos sus representados suman más de mil millones de euros de valor de mercado y, además, cuenta con entrenadores de la talla de Mourinho, Nuno Espírito Santo o Sérgio Conceiçao.

Mino RaiolaEl polémico agente que temen los clubes

Raiola is another of the most famous agents in the world, especially for his almost always controversial statements.

But it

is impossible for anyone to deny that he does his job as the best, taking his players where they want and getting huge contracts.

He has been part of this sector since the early nineties, when he became the strong man of the

Sports Promotions

agency

and since then he has not stopped growing within the world until he is what he is today.

Bajo su tutela tiene nombres que han protagonizado grandísimos traspasos en los últimos años. Hablamos de Ibrahimovic, que se fue al Barça por cerca de 70.000.000€; De Ligt, quien fue a la Juve por 75.000.000€; o Pogba, llegado al United por 105.000.000€. De hecho, Football Leaks reveló que Raiola se llevó 48 de esos 105 millones en aquella operación. Y ya se frota las manos con el próximo traspaso de Haaland, también cliente suyo.

Entrevista a Mino Raiola

“Es incómodo como un grano en el culo”, destacó en una ocasión De Laurentiis, presidente del Nápoles. Y Guardiola le acabó contestando en abril de 2018 después de muchos años con incesantes ataques: “Hace dos meses me ofreció a Pogba y Mkhitaryan. ¿Por qué me los ofreció? Si soy un hombre malo, debe proteger a sus jugadores y no llevarlos con una persona como yo, con un perro. Compararme con un perro está mal. Hay que respetar más a los perros”. Por supuesto, también ha tenido desencuentros con sus propios futbolistas, dejando de representar a Insigne, Lukaku o Hamsik.

CAA Base LtdLos especialistas en la Premier League

It is more difficult to assign a known visible face to this agency, but it is one of the strongest in Europe, especially in England, where it was born in 1997. Now they have offices in Paris, Milan, Madrid, Portugal, Belgium, Japan, Australia, United States, Brazil and Uruguay.

They represent more than three hundred people including players, coaches, sports directors and experts.

To get an idea of ​​the strength they have on the islands, in the summer of 2017 they negotiated about 15% of all transfers that were made in the Premier League.

“I have been with CAA Base since I was 17 years old and they have supported me both on and off the field as I became the player I am today,” says Kyle Walker, who starred in a € 52,000,000 transfer in 2017 to Manchester City.

Along with him, there are many great Premier League footballers who are in his client portfolio.
