Bye Kev, sorry you're team are out of the Champions league, be seeing you.
 

Agents are coining it in.

£9 mill spent on agent fees of a £33.5 mill positive net spend.

Almost a third - the cost of doing business.
The agents get it on outgoing was well as incomings so it’s £9m on €50m of incoming and €83m on outgoings
Most of it probably went on getting clubs to take Maupey and Holgate off our hands!

Wish I’d have known earlier. I’d have not bought my lad a PlayStation 5 and instead donated the funds towards the “get Maupay & Holgate the feck out me club” links
 
Agents fees are one of the reasons too many players end up bankrupt. Players have to pay 45% tax on agents fees even if Club pays the fees as it’s counted as a benefit in kind from your employer - so detrimental to the finances of clubs and players.
 
Agents are the biggest parasites of the game, attaching themselves to young talent to cream their 10% from their salary for their entire careers. I respect the heck out of players - mostly now retired - who had no agent or allowed a family member to take charge.
