Roc Nation Adds Militão to Its Football Roster
Roc Nation Sports International has announced the signing of Real Madrid and Brazil defender Éder Militão, adding another established international to its growing football roster.
The announcement, released on 23 September 2026, brings the 28-year-old into an agency already representing fellow Real Madrid players Vinícius Jr., Yan Diomande and Endrick.
For Militão, the agreement opens a new chapter in his representation, with support focused on both his sporting career and opportunities beyond the pitch.
From Porto to Real Madrid’s Biggest Stages
Militão joined Real Madrid from FC Porto in 2019 and has become an important figure in the club’s defence. His athleticism, physical strength, aerial ability and tactical awareness have helped him compete at the highest level of European football.
His honours include two UEFA Champions League trophies and three La Liga titles, alongside success in the Club World Cup and domestic cup competitions. Real Madrid’s official profile currently lists 21 appearances, 1,529 minutes, two goals and one assist for the 2025/26 campaign. These are the figures displayed for that season, rather than his current 2026/27 totals. Real Madrid player profile.
Internationally, Militão has earned more than 30 caps for Brazil and represented A Seleção at the 2022 World Cup. His experience across club and international football makes him a significant addition to Roc Nation’s defensive roster.
Militão: “Build a Lasting Legacy”
Militão said the agency’s approach to supporting athletes on and off the pitch was central to his enthusiasm about joining.
"Roc Nation Sports International is renowned for supporting athletes to achieve excellence both on and off the field. I look forward to working closely with the team to push new boundaries and build a lasting legacy."
The statement points to a partnership extending beyond contract negotiations. Alongside sporting decisions, the relationship offers scope for commercial development, personal branding and planning for life beyond his playing career.
Frederico Pena Welcomes the Brazil Defender
Frederico Pena, President of Roc Nation Sports Brazil, welcomed Militão to the agency’s “family” and emphasised its commitment to supporting the person as well as the player.
"Éder represents everything we look for in an athlete - world-class talent, relentless determination, and outstanding character. We are proud of the manner in which we have consistently made dreams come true for our athletes through 360-degree representation that prioritises the needs of both the person and player, and we will aim to do exactly the same for Éder ."
Pena’s comments underline the agency’s broader service model: combining football representation with support for an athlete’s individual ambitions, commercial opportunities and long-term development.
A New Signing After a Record Summer
Militão’s arrival follows a window that Roc Nation described as historic, featuring major transfers, contract extensions and career moves across global football.
FootballAgencies recently covered Roc Nation’s record summer transfers and Real Madrid renewals, including Diomande’s move to Madrid, Vinícius Jr.’s extension, Gabriel Martinelli’s transfer to Al Hilal and Kerolin’s arrival at Barcelona Femení.
Adding Militão deepens the agency’s presence at Real Madrid while expanding its Brazilian international contingent. Unlike the summer’s transfer announcements, this agreement concerns representation: a new support team around a player already established at one of football’s most demanding clubs.
