A footballer's talent can open the door, but the right agent can determine what happens after he walks through it.
In modern football, having a good agent is about more than negotiating contracts. A great agent protects a player's interests, identifies the right opportunities, manages relationships with clubs, negotiates contracts and endorsements, and ultimately helps shape a player's career.
Talent alone isn't always enough.
The wrong agent can rush your career, prioritize commissions over development, or place you in situations that don't align with your ambitions.
The right agent sees the bigger picture.
Victor Osimhen is a good example. His journey from Napoli to Galatasaray involved complicated negotiations, contract issues and interest from several clubs. Having the right representation became crucial in navigating those situations and securing a move that worked for him.
Now, with reports linking Osimhen with a potential move to Arsenal and suggestions that a fee of over £60m could tempt Galatasaray, the question is back on the table:
Would Osimhen be a good addition to Arsenal?
Would he fit their system and give them the goals they need?
