Approach & Philosophy

The current roster suggests a UK pathway emphasis: Premier League representation at the top end, strong EFL coverage, and a meaningful share of U21/U18 talents attached to elite academies.
Representation also extends to coaching careers, indicating a broader football careers model beyond playing contracts alone.

Fees & Transparency

FFAR defines service fee caps by representation scenario and remuneration thresholds, but parts of the framework have also seen temporary suspension and national implementation differences.
In practice, clients should expect written representation agreements, clarity on any dual representation, and transparent disclosure of service fees and chargeable expenses consistent with the applicable FA/FIFA rules at the time of the transaction.

Compliance & Reputation

  • Disciplinary actions / sanctions: No public disciplinary findings identified in reviewed sources; named agents appear on the FA register.

  • Litigation / disputes: No specific litigation involving the firm identified in reviewed sources.

  • Media sentiment: Neutral – public footprint is primarily roster- and regulation-based rather than controversy-driven.

Awards/recognition

  • No major industry awards or formal recognitions were identified in reviewed sources.

  • Testimonials:
