Anyone know how would an agent’s fees for representing Kieran be structured?
Would they get a percentage of his annual salary? And any bonuses (such as for securing a place in Europe)?
For example, if Kieran is on say £5m per year, Frank the agent gets say 30% of that every year, as well as a cut of any bonuses? |  | | |  |

Structured by Satan and inked in the tears of the innocent. |  |

No way near that much. The agent will get a % fee of the total contract value, which will likely be remunerated at a given financial point in the year. I imagine it’ll be somewhere around the 5% mark. |  | | |

Usually 5% of the contract, quite often paid by the club and not the player/ manager as you would expect | | | |

It's an absolute scandal that the club pay the fee.
The agents client should pay it.
It's a real stain on the football industry. |  |

In any properly-regulated sector it would be banned, as it creates a colossal conflict of interest.
How can an agent objectively advise their client if, for instance, Club A will pay them £1m for their 'services', whilst Club B are willing to pay £2m for the same 'service'?! | |

Aha, hadn’t realised that would be the case for managers and other staff, thought that would only be the case for players | | | |

Genuinely no idea of how it works for football managers - how agents’ comp is typically structured and standard levels - hence the question.
Intrigued to see a firm, informed response to see whether it’s X% of year 1 or Y% of total contact value or something completely different. | | | |

Does tax change the landscape for all parties involved to make it beneficial for the club to pay? | | | |

As a professional the agent that I select to represent me gets paid by the practice that employs me. They get a percentage of my wage for two years. If I were to leave then they don't get the full amount. There is scope for them to be unethical as after I have been in post for the two years they can approach me and say X or Y are looking and will pay more or perhaps do the type of work that I had previously expressed an interest for. |  |

Totally agree. The players/managers are in to strong a position. The amount we have paid and are going to pay, especially this window, isn't right. |  |

It’s totally wrong isn’t it! I get why players need agents, because of the amounts of money potentially at stake, but the players should pay them. It would help to drive agents fees down if they were having to competitively tender for work. | |

FIFA have regulated fees as follows:
Salary below $200k - 5%
Salary above $200k - 3%
If the agent represents both parties they require consent and would obviously get double.
Agents also get 10% of any transfer fee/compensation if their party is sold
If McKenna's release clause was triggered the agent stood to get 10% plus another 3% of McKenna's new salary (as maximum figures).
The increase in remuneration for his new salary must have been close to any release figure.
Edit: I should add that the reduction to 3% is only for the salary that is above 200k. They get 5% upto the 200k mark [Post edited 31 May 2024 10:29]

I wouldn’t argue with that. Although I don’t know about football agents fee I do know about agent fees away from football and they aren’t too dissimilar from that. | | | |

Interesting. That applies to players - and the same with coaching staff + managers? | | | |
