Are you a Soccer Agent and you have just started? You're not yet but you would like to be one of them? If you belong to one of these groups, let me ask you a question: Has anyone, ever, explained to you what this profession is about? I mean the day-to-day. Do you know what to do? And more important, do you know how to do it? I'll go further. Do you know the variables you have to pay special attention to? And the obstacles that will appear and how to overcome them? I will share with you the question I asked myself at the time: "I am already a FIFA agent, now what?" Tell me, is it familiar to you? Have you ever asked yourself this question? Now think about how you would feel if I told you that you can learn the keys of this profession from a practical point of view. Imagine yourself making a qualitative step forward as an agent! Sounds good, right? Well, it is possible. This is the book I wish I had read when I started. In my case it took me time to realize many things, so now I want you to save time and bad moments.
