I want to be an agent. I actually looked into it a while ago and to become an agent is so ridiculously easy, I don't know why everyone isn't doing it. The secret then is to have the contacts/players wanting to sign for you I guess! Mendes 1st client was Nuno who was a back up goalie so not that hard to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Remember when Kewell went to Liverpool for £7m, and Leeds only got £3m the rest Kewell and his agent pocketed. Yep, this is nothing new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I caught the back end of conversation on TS today, where they were discussing some bloke from spain who has gone to China for £75m and will be earning £18m per year. I can't even remember his name and neither of Paul Hawksbee or Andy Jacobs had ever heard of tbe bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted January 12, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 12, 2018 Ryan Kent has signed in loan at Bristol City from Liverpool. Meant to be a good winger and did well at Barnsley last season. Not been great over in Germany this season apparently. Strengthens a rival in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I wonder why Man City are dicking about £35m for Sanchez with the money they spend on players just because he’s coming to the end of his contract with Arsenal. If they want him they should get it done, it’s a snip in this market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Can't be that bothered if they wont pay £35m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 IMO, Man City must be confident that Sanchez only wants to join them. they’ve offered £20m (with £15m signing on for Sanchez himself) now but know they could get him for nothing (with a little more signing on fee) in six months. its a risky game to play but makes me think they know Sanchez will only sign with them. theres also an element of brinkmanship with Arsenal. Will they really let him go for nothing??? I can see it happening for the £20m on the last day of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Arda Turan back to Turkey and Istanbul Basaksehir. 2.5 season loan. What an utterly terrible signing for Barca he turned out to be. £35 m and a hefty salary spent on a guy who only started about 20 games for them.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was just a signing to appeal more to that region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do have (or used to at least) Turkish Airlines as their official partner so I'd say that is plausible.

VillaJ100 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 They do seem to have an association with oil money in the middle east. Can guarantee if a Qatari player was even mid table prem standard they would probably snap them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
