Approach & Philosophy

One Team Management appears to operate a high-touch, low-volume model: a small roster with a clear focus on placing clients into top-flight environments and keeping them there through renewals, strategic loans and targeted transfers.

The agency’s recent work shows a bias toward Premier League and top European leagues when the sporting project and pathway align, rather than purely maximizing volume of transactions.

Fees & Transparency

• FFAR service fee caps depend on who the agent represents and the player’s remuneration level, with specific maximum percentages set out in Article 15.

• Dual representation is permitted only in limited cases and requires explicit written consent, with a capped combined fee structure.

• Practical market ranges (where compliant with FFAR and applicable national rules) typically sit within the FFAR caps for salary-based fees and up to the capped share of transfer compensation when acting for the releasing club.

Compliance & Reputation

• Disciplinary actions / sanctions: No public sanctions or collective proceedings indicated on French company compliance summaries.

• Litigation / disputes: No public litigation flagged on basic company compliance summaries.

• Media sentiment: Neutral to positive – coverage primarily tied to sporting transfers and player call-ups.

Awards/recognition

• No major industry awards publicly documented for the agency in primary sources reviewed.
