Approach & Philosophy
ADM Esporte’s roster composition suggests a “Brazil core + export lanes” strategy: domestic representation complemented by targeted placements in Portugal as a gateway league, plus selective jumps to top destinations when opportunity aligns. The agency’s visible work includes both senior pros and U23 development profiles, supporting career progression through contracts, renewals, and loan steps.
Fees & Transparency
Typical football-agent compensation is usually structured as a percentage commission on player remuneration and/or transfer-related representation, with additional clauses for image rights or specific commercial work (where permitted). Under FIFA’s Football Agent Regulations (FFAR), commission caps, service definitions, disclosure, and dual-representation constraints apply, though practical enforceability can vary by jurisdiction and ongoing legal context. No agency-specific fee policy was found publicly in the reviewed sources.
Compliance & Reputation
Disciplinary actions / sanctions: No public sanctions found in the reviewed sources.
Litigation / disputes: No consistent public court record found in the reviewed sources; historical reporting references player-career handling/representation context (2013).
Media sentiment: Neutral – mostly “who-represents-who” and mapping/industry context rather than investigative controversy.
Awards/recognition
No formal awards or rankings were found in the reviewed public sources; recognition appears mainly via roster presence and media mapping of representation in Brazil.
