About

BG Sports Management is a Tel Aviv–based football agency built around the work of FIFA–licensed agent and sports lawyer Boaz Goren, focusing strongly on the Israeli market and export of talent into Europe. Since 2016 it has grown from a boutique career–management shop into a verified agency with a portfolio of over 30 players, including full internationals for Israel, Cameroon and Romania.
The agency specialises in pathway design for young talents from Israeli academies to senior football, frequently using loans and step–up moves to Belgium, Eastern Europe and beyond. It combines legal expertise, in–house scouting and video analysis with close relationships to local clubs.

Approach & Philosophy

BG Sports follows an individual, pathway–driven philosophy: it prioritises steady development over short-term gains, moving players only when they are ready to compete and progress. For many Israeli talents this means graduating from academy football into consistent minutes in Ligat ha’Al or Liga Leumit before considering a move to Belgium or other European leagues.

Negotiations are framed around legal robustness and long-term upside. Clauses on playing time, bonuses, exit options and sell-on participation are treated as strategic tools rather than afterthoughts. The agency leverages scouting, data and video analysis to match players with systems and coaches that fit their profile, while maintaining close communication with families and clubs.

Fees & Transparency

BG Sports does not publish detailed commission tables, but its operations appear to follow current FIFA Football Agent Regulations:

  • For single-client representation (player or engaging club), typical commissions fall within the regulated 3–5 % range of the player’s fixed annual remuneration.

  • In dual representation (player and engaging club), combined fees are capped in the 6–10 % band.

  • When representing the releasing club, service fees can reach up to 10 % of the transfer compensation.

Payments are usually spread across the duration of the contract and routed in line with FFAR provisions. Dual representation is used cautiously and must comply with both FIFA and national-association rules, with written consent and clear disclosure. Image-rights and sponsorship earnings are generally negotiated separately but tend to sit within similar percentage frameworks.

Compliance & Reputation

  • Disciplinary actions / sanctions: No public disciplinary sanctions or bans involving BG Sports or Boaz Goren are on record.

  • Litigation / disputes: No significant litigation involving BG Sports has surfaced in public databases; the agency’s footprint is largely sporting rather than legal.

  • Media sentiment: Media sentiment is broadly neutral to positive, centred on transfer coverage and development stories for players such as Anan Khalaili, Lisav Eissat and others, with no major public controversies attached to the agency.

Awards / Recognition

  • Verified, licensed status as an agency on major football-data platforms.

  • Growing recognition through representation of full internationals for Israel, Cameroon and Romania, and consistent involvement in European competition through players like Anan Khalaili and Lisav Naif Eissat.
