Approach & Philosophy

Fisher Sport positions itself as an international but boutique-style agency: clients work directly with licensed agents who know their markets in depth, rather than being one of hundreds on a mega-roster. The agency emphasises placing players where they can play and develop – often in leagues like Israel, Romania, Bulgaria or Malta – before targeting moves into higher-profile competitions.

Scouting combines traditional live watching with data-driven evaluation from modern performance platforms, using statistics to support, not replace, the agent’s eyes. In negotiations, Fisher Sport is known for pragmatic, deal-driven work: they aim for realistic contract structures, secured playing-time opportunities and fair exit clauses rather than chasing headline fees at all costs.


Fees & Transparency

  • Typical commission ranges:

    • In line with industry norms and FIFA/FA guidance, most football agent commissions sit in the 3–5 % range of a player’s gross salary, with higher percentages historically applied on lower-value contracts and when representing the selling club.

  • Regulatory context:

    • FIFA’s Football Agent Regulations have introduced caps and stricter transparency, while national federations such as the FA have implemented their own rules. Some elements of fee caps remain under legal challenge, but practical practice in major markets still clusters around the 3–5 % range. Fisher Sport operates within these frameworks in the territories where it is active.

  • Dual representation:

    • Where allowed, dual representation (acting for both player and club) is only possible with written informed consent from all parties and in line with the relevant caps and conflict-of-interest rules.

  • Image rights and expenses:

    • Image-rights deals are usually handled via separate agreements. Standard practice is that legitimate scouting, travel and legal costs are either absorbed by the agency or pre-agreed in writing before being charged to the player.


Compliance & Reputation

  • Disciplinary actions / sanctions:

    • No public record of major FIFA, FA or national-FA disciplinary sanctions specifically against Fisher Sport Ltd or its leading agents as of late 2025.

  • Litigation / disputes:

    • No widely reported court cases or high-profile disputes involving Fisher Sport as a defendant; any smaller contractual disagreements appear to have been handled privately.

  • Media sentiment:

    • Media sentiment is generally neutral-to-positive: Fisher Sport mainly appears in local and niche coverage around transfers as a background facilitator rather than a headline-driven super-agency.


Awards/recognition

  • Staff and agents associated with Fisher Sport have received individual professional recognition in their respective fields, supporting the agency’s image as ambitious and internationally networked.
