Approach & Philosophy

TMP Soccer combines a traditional Italian intermediary model with a pronounced development focus. With deep roots in Atalanta’s academy and extensive experience in Serie A and Serie B, the agency concentrates on early talent identification, carefully planned loan spells and a stepped progression from youth football to senior squads and, where appropriate, to international moves.

Negotiation-wise, TMP Soccer tends to work closely with club managements it knows well, favouring stability and medium- to long-term planning for core clients, while allowing flexibility for creative or attacking players whose career paths may be more volatile. The in-house scouting group and long-standing club relationships give the agency strong information flow, while legal and financial details are usually managed together with specialist advisors.

Fees & Transparency

• Commission ranges:

  • In line with FIFA and FIGC practice, commissions typically fall within the general range of up to 3–5 % of the player’s gross remuneration or the total transfer package, depending on whether the commission is paid by the player, the club or both.

• Dual representation:

  • Italian rules have allowed certain forms of dual representation but are tightening. TMP Soccer structures its work through written mandates that define which party is the client and how commissions are calculated and paid, as reflected in past arbitration cases.

• Image rights & expenses:

  • For its bigger names, TMP Soccer usually separates sporting contracts from commercial exploitation, working with personal companies or external marketing partners. Normal operational costs are typically covered within commission structures or agreed in advance rather than billed arbitrarily.

Compliance & Reputation

• Disciplinary actions / sanctions:

  • No public record of major disciplinary sanctions specifically against TMP Soccer as an agency. Some senior figures appear in older FIGC documents in their former roles with clubs, but this is distinct from the agency’s current work.

• Litigation / disputes:

  • In 2020, TMP Soccer pursued arbitration against Novara over unpaid commission instalments, highlighting its reliance on formal contracts and its willingness to enforce them legally when needed.

• Media sentiment:

  • Italian media generally portray TMP Soccer, and Tullio Tinti in particular, as influential yet low-profile and technically competent, with strong ties to major clubs and the agents’ association.

Awards / Recognition

• No major international “agent of the year”-type awards are publicly recorded for TMP Soccer, but the agency is widely recognised through:

  • Its representation of Italian national-team players such as Bastoni, Raspadori and Scalvini.

  • Its recurrent presence in FIGC reports and media coverage of key Serie A and Serie B transfers and commission figures.
