Approach & Philosophy

Rondo positions itself as “the new football agency standard”, building everything around the question of who a player or coach can become rather than who they are today. The agency emphasises integrity, long term thinking and a multidisciplinary support structure that goes beyond classic agent work.

Scouting and representation are data informed, with detailed performance analysis feeding into career planning, while mental coaching and personal guidance are treated as core services rather than add ons. Negotiations are collaborative and relationship driven, with a focus on finding the right context for development instead of only maximising short term fees.

Fees & Transparency

Rondo does not publicly disclose its commission structure or detailed fee policy. In line with European market practice, football representation typically operates in roughly the 5–10 percent range of gross salary or transfer related earnings, subject to domestic regulations.
There is no published information on dual representation policies, image rights ownership or expense reimbursement, but the agency’s positioning around integrity and long term development suggests an emphasis on clear planning and the use of external legal and tax specialists for complex structures.

Compliance & Reputation

Disciplinary actions / sanctions:

• No public record of FIFA, KNVB or other disciplinary sanctions against Rondo Football or its key agents as of December 2025.

Litigation / disputes:

• No major legal disputes involving the agency have been reported in mainstream or specialist football media.

Media sentiment:

• Overall positive to neutral, with coverage focused on successful moves for young players, coaching appointments at ambitious clubs and national team call ups for clients.

Awards/recognition

• Jorg Schreuders – Eredivisie Talent of the Month (August 2024) and inclusion in Eredivisie Team of the Month.

• Ernest Poku and Jorg Schreuders – simultaneous call up to the Netherlands U21 squad.

• Several coaching clients, for example Joran Pot, have collected domestic titles and coaching awards before or during their collaboration with Rondo.
