Player Agents

[McGun]

I know player agents don't always have the greatest of reputations and not everyone is always a fan of them but i'm looking down the path of possibility of becoming a player agent as i love football so much and i think it's one of the best ways i can get involved with the game i love.

I'm not totaly sure how you go about becoming a player agent so i was just wondering if anyone would be nice enough to share some advice for me.

Sorry if this is not the right place for this.

Thanks.

Maybe check out the coaching academies, they probably have links or information to help you

Pretty sure you also might need to have a law background

Pretty sure you also might need to have a well-connected, criminal underworld background

Looking at it you just have to pass a F.A test which is 20 questions then take a C.R.B to make sure you dont fiddle kids

Really keen on becoming one now, thanks for taking the time to share some advice.

Well someones cashing in on this Premiership Money Bubble.

Serious question.

Why is it the responsibility of a Football Club to pay a Football Players Agent?

In the real world if you engage someone to manage you, YOU pay them, not your employer. Just another 'broken' corrupted system we have to put up from Fifa?

Shambles.

The only advice I would give is dont try and tap up James Mcarthy as a client.......
