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.

    ⚽ BONUS EPISODE ⚽ – A special supplement to Episode 58 featuring the full interview with @Erkut Sogut, the founder of the all-new 'International Federation of Football Agents' (IFFA).In this exclusive conversation, Erkut shares his motivations for launching IFFA and how it aims to truly represent football agents worldwide. He addresses the reaction from football stakeholders, has FIFA engaged, and whether IFFA could have a role within FIFA’s Agents Working Group.We also explore the challenges facing agents today—from improving their public image and navigating an evolving industry to the importance of education, networking, and finding a niche in a competitive market. Plus, Erkut discusses why FIFA's cap on agent commissions "just doesn’t make sense" and how self-regulation with FIFPro could reshape the industry.A must-listen for agents, players, and football insiders! 🎙️⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EMAIL : ⁠⁠questions@theagentsangle.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT THE SHOW via KoFi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠======SHOW RUNNING ORDER :(00:10) - Episode Introduction & Show Overview > (02:06) - Motivation for Launching International Federation of Football Agents (IFFA). >(04:43) - How Will IFFA Be Truly Representative? >(08:46) - Similarities and Differences With Other Football Agent Associations. > (11:47) - Inclusivity & Cooperation - No Exclusions To and No Competition With Other Football Agent Associations. >(13:22) - FIFA, FFAR : Cooperation and Consultation Turns to Misrepresentation and Exclusion. >(17:55) - Reaction from Football Stakeholders and Football Community to to IFFA. > (19:49) - Independence & The Possibility of Role With FIFA Agents Working Group ((F)AWG). >(23:24) - The Future Envisaged for IFFA. > (24:41) - Governance, Ethics & Structure. > (27:53) - Self-Regulation & Licensing? >(29:02) - Evolving Football Agent Regulations and FFAR After ECJ Decision. > (30:16) - FFAR Cap on Agent Commissions : Just Doesn't Make Sense. > (32:26) - FIFA Don't Understand the Football Agency World. > (33:32) - Where's the FIFA 'Agents Chamber'? >(35:31) - Improving The Image and Representation of Football Agents and the Industry. > (37:14) - The World of Agents - Gucci, Rolex and Big Cars. > (38:07) - Agent Education Goes Beyond JUST The Agents > (39:45) - Is There a 'Template' for Becoming a Successful Football Agent? > (40:09) - Communication Skills, Languages & Cultures. > (41:34) - The Agent Exam is Just the Start! > (42:44) - Networking > (45:43) - Trends and Developments in the Football Agent Industry. > (46:26) - Players Agent Evolution. > (47:38) - A World of Opportunities. > (50:46) - What are the Biggest Challenges for Football Agents Today? > (51:25) - Patience is a Must! > (53:19) - More Football Agents is Not Necessarily a Bad Thing in a Growing Industry. > (54:24) - Agents Finding Their 'Own Niche'. >(58:27) - One Wish for the Football Agent Industry. > (61:29) - Disclaimer >======RELATED LINKS :⁠Dr Erkut Sogut⁠ >--⁠IFFA - International Federation of Football Agents⁠ >--⁠Should FIFPRO & 'Ultimately'​ the Players License ‘Player Agents’ in Football?

    Agent Associations See a 'New Kid on The Block' : IFFA's Founder Speaks to The Agents Angle - High Court Sends Agent Dispute to the FA - Unpaid Transfer Fees Impact Agents
    Mar 30 2025
    A major Premier League club vs agent dispute has been redirected to football arbitration by the High Court - what's this mean for agents, and why does choosing the right dispute forum matter? We explore the options available for agents, including FIFA’s Pro-Bono and Legal Aid Fund (FLAF), and discuss how legal safeguards can impact costs and case outcomes.Then, football agent and sports lawyer Erkut Sogut joins the show to discuss IFFA (International Federation of Football Agents)—why now, what sets it apart from existing associations, and how it plans to tackle agent misrepresentation and FIFA’s regulatory approach.We also dive into the growing issue of unpaid transfer fees, a problem that directly affects agents and players alike. Plus, with football agent associations failing to unite the industry, is there finally a vacuum for a new, influential agent body?An episode packed with expert insights into the latest industry shifts—don’t miss it!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EMAIL : ⁠⁠questions@theagentsangle.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT THE SHOW via KoFi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠======SHOW RUNNING ORDER :(01:08) - Downtime Period For Football Agents ...
