In this episode of The Agents Angle, we explore a whirlwind of recent developments affecting football agents.
Over 1,000 FIFA-licensed football agents appear to have been suspended, sparking questions about their future and any support that may be available to them.
Joining us is the legendary football agent Barry Silkman, who brings over 30 years of experience as an agent and more than 300 professional games under his belt as a player.
Silky shares fascinating insights into how players perceptions of agents have changed, the evolution of the agent's skillset, and his proudest transfer dealings, as well as how unexpected interventions and good fortune led to him becoming a football agent.
We also unpack FIFA’s recent introduction of new transfer windows, including the potential headaches these changes may cause for agents, especially those dealing with the Club World Cup. EMAIL : questions@theagentsangle.com
