I take the point but part of it is marketability of the player, image rights etc, shirt sales .Also bear in mind that the true value of a kante is not reflected in his price as there was an escape clause. Open market auction he goes for more
About a Joe Allen more? As I understand it Pogba's agent will be getting at least a Joe Allen for his trouble too. That can't be right, can't be to football's benefit. Even Tikay won't be able to defend it. |

Even Tikay won't be able to defend it. I remember when for a while they used to call £500K "A Curle" after his perceivedly inflated transfer to the blue side of Manchester. Things appear to have moved on apace when an agent makes £20M out of one deal. |

This Higuain transfer is nuts. He's 29 in December! Think this may also be highly detrimental to Arsenal's striker search. Napoli need a goal scorer now and have some proper wedge to throw around.

I was thinking about that agent fee figure today. Imo, capping the amount paid to agents per deal to £500k should be the first move the powers that be make when they get together for their annual conventions. The fee ultimately filters down to the fans who go to games or are forced to pay for Sky/BT Sport. For example, Brighton today released an email stating that a previously free to enter family bar would now be members only and cost £250pp for membership, including for kids. Only added benefit? A 'complimentary' program for each game.

Serious question. How does my kid go about becoming an agent. Is it as simple as you need to be mates with a youth mega star and then get referrals after that?

I've watched a few 'secret agents' videos on the web and it looks like you only need a couch. |

Regards kante, does the clause make a difference? If clubs want to bid despite Chelsea triggering it, then Surely they would get preference? |

I suppose it depends on the specific terms and conditions of the release clause. No doubt Tighty knows more but IIRC there were restrictive conditions in the contract meaning only certain clubs could trigger it. As for the auction element it would again depend on the terms of the clause. Typically the fee is fixed and if several clubs interested it is the player's choice. Not Kante specific but this is some backgorund: http://www.danielgeey.com/buy-out-release-clauses-in-football-the-basics/ |

Everton couldn't have got him for 8mil but we could |
