BestFoot FM open Poland branch
BestFoot FM have announced the launch of BestFoot Poland, with Kamil Olszewski joining the agency as the group expands its international structure.
The announcement was made by BestFoot FM on Instagram, where the agency framed the move as part of a wider growth plan after “important results” achieved over the last two years. The message was clear: BestFoot want a bigger global footprint, stronger services and a wider operational network around player development.
The agency described Olszewski as a professional they have known and respected for several years, adding that the new Polish branch will follow the same mission: protecting and supporting the talent of its players.
For BestFoot FM, this is not just a new local contact. It is a strategic market expansion.
Poland becomes the next step
Poland is a logical market for BestFoot FM.
The agency already operates between Italy and Spain, with activity in wider Europe and emerging leagues. Adding a Polish branch gives the group another Central European base, opening access to Ekstraklasa, Polish youth development, outbound moves and a market that increasingly connects with Italy, Germany, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Scandinavia.
Polish football has become more relevant for agencies because it offers both sides of the pathway. It produces players who need routes abroad, and it attracts foreign players who need visibility, minutes and a platform before moving again.
For an agency like BestFoot FM, which has built much of its identity around career progression rather than pure headline transfers, Poland fits the model.
BestFoot’s recent growth gives context
BestFoot FM’s profile has been rising steadily.
FootballAgencies lists BestFoot FM by Michele Fioravanti as an Italian-Spanish network founded in 2012 by FIFA-licensed intermediary Michele Fioravanti. The agency is based in Umbria, has a strong Spanish connection through the Basque Country, and represents more than 90 players across Italy, Spain and other markets.
The estimated total client value is around €21m, with a roster focused largely on Serie B, Serie C, Spain’s lower professional divisions and cross-border opportunity markets.
That makes the Poland move important. BestFoot are not trying to become a super-agency overnight. They are building a practical European network, market by market.
The current roster shows the model
BestFoot’s roster explains the agency’s direction.
Key clients include Filippo Ranocchia at Palermo, Matteo Brunori at Palermo, Alessandro Sersanti at Modena, Luca Pandolfi at Catanzaro, Giovanni Corradini at Ascoli, Mattia Compagnon at Venezia and several Spanish-market players including Rubén Alves, Ekain Zenitagoia and Alex Valiño.
These are not only star-name files. They are pathway files.
Ranocchia, for example, has been one of the agency’s strongest current assets. Recent public season data credits him with more than 30 Serie B appearances in 2025/26, with two goals and a strong midfield influence for Palermo. Brunori remains one of the most visible attacking names in BestFoot’s portfolio because of his long Palermo connection and status in Italian football.
BestFoot’s work is built around this kind of profile: players who need careful career planning, stable roles and moves that protect playing time.
Kamil Olszewski adds local knowledge
The addition of Kamil Olszewski gives BestFoot FM a local figure for the Polish market.
That matters because agency expansion is not only about opening an Instagram account or adding a country name. To work properly, a new branch needs local relationships, language, club understanding, academy access and knowledge of domestic football culture.
Olszewski’s role gives BestFoot a bridge into that environment. The agency’s announcement made the relationship personal, saying they have known and respected him for years. That kind of language suggests this is a trust-based expansion rather than a quick commercial experiment.
For players in Poland, the appeal is clear: a local contact connected to an Italian-Spanish agency network.
A 360-degree service push
BestFoot’s announcement used one important phrase: “360-degree development.”
That is exactly where modern agencies are moving. Player representation is no longer only contract negotiation. Agencies now need to support scouting, data, career planning, medical and performance coordination, legal and fiscal issues, mental support, relocation, language, brand building and family communication.
BestFoot already markets itself around long-term development and the “Codice BestFoot,” a set of internal principles focused on professionalism, integrity and daily commitment. The Poland branch extends that philosophy into a new market.
The message is that BestFoot want to grow without losing the player-care identity that defines the agency.
Why Poland matters for Italian agencies
Italian agencies have good reason to watch Poland closely.
Serie A and Serie B clubs have become more open to Central and Eastern European markets because they offer physical, tactically adaptable and relatively affordable players. Polish players often view Italy as a strong next step because it offers tactical education, visibility and a clear route into higher-value European football.
At the same time, Polish clubs are more ambitious commercially. Ekstraklasa has improved its infrastructure, scouting, media presence and youth development environment. That makes Poland a more interesting market for both incoming and outgoing moves.
For BestFoot FM, a Polish branch could help create two-way movement: Polish talent into Italy and Spain, and foreign players into Poland when the pathway is right.
A controlled expansion, not a vanity move
For FootballAgencies readers, the important point is that BestFoot Poland fits the agency’s existing shape.
BestFoot are not suddenly moving into an unrelated market. They are adding another European base to a network that already covers Italy, Spain and wider international opportunities. The addition of Kamil Olszewski gives the branch a human anchor, while Michele Fioravanti’s structure gives it agency continuity.
The next test will be deal flow. If BestFoot Poland starts producing player placements, renewals and cross-border moves, this launch could become a meaningful step in the agency’s next phase.
For now, the message is clear: BestFoot FM are growing, Poland is the next market, and the agency wants to protect and support talent through a broader European network.
