Town paid out £163,403 in fees to registered intermediaries (previously licensed agents) for the four-month period between October 1st 2015 and February 1st 2016, the FA have revealed.

The disclosure is required under FIFA’s Regulations on Working with Intermediaries, which was introduced in April last year.

Only six teams - Birmingham, Bolton, Charlton, Huddersfield, Preston and Rotherham - paid out less to intermediaries than the Blues over the four-month period.

In the year to the end of September 2015, Town made payments of £261,346.50 to agents.

Daleyitfc added 19:22 - Apr 22 Just make agents illegal : the club should adopt a policy of only dealing direct with the player, and if he refuses he can beggar off elsewhere.

NSL added 19:51 - Apr 22 The client is surely the player, why would the club have to pay? When you buy a house you don't have to pay the sellers estate agent do you?! Something I clearly know nothing about but the sums are incredible.

WeWereZombies added 13:34 - Apr 23 Phil - from that table it also looks like Huddersfield spent less than us - so six lower spenders (and none of them above us in the league).
