Town Agents' Fees £779,739
Thursday, 31st Mar 2022 16:43

Town spent £779,739 on agents’ fees between February 2nd 2021 and January 31st this year, almost double the £341,622 paid out during the previous year.

Only Sheffield Wednesday, £796,224, paid out more among the other League One clubs. Town's total is higher than six current Championship sides over the period, Barnsley, Blackpool, Derby, Hull City, Luton and Peterborough.

The significant increase in spending on agents is little surprise given the turnaround in playing staff over the summer.

As well as new permanent and loan signings, the £779,739 includes the fees relating to new contracts for the likes of Janoi Donacien, Idris El Mizouni and youngsters Harley Curtis and Ola Bello.

The FA has been required to publish clubs' spending on intermediaries by FIFA regulations since April 2015.

Not unexpected when you take into account all the transfers. Still not as much as Wednesday!
Which makes it even more of a shame we are not higher in the table. Hey Ho - onwards and upwards. COYB

I've always found it weird that the clubs pay players' agents. It just seems wrong on many levels.

gosblue Yep, there should be no signing on fees/bonuses. The agent should just get 10% of the player's wages or the player should pay the fee if they prefer.

I begrudge every last penny spent on agents fees. End of.
