Club Sourcing

If you’re looking to find a new club, you’re in the right place. With connections from the Premier League down to non-league clubs, we can provide you with the information needed to ensure you find the right club to share your talent with.

As dedicated UK football agents, we work with a range of players from semi-professionals to full international players. We can help players find their first team in the Under 23 and Under 18 categories, as well as academy players who are looking for a new club due to relocation. If you’re contracted to a club and wish to leave, we can also work proactively to find the best possible solution to facilitate a move.

Partnership

Due to the commercial nature of football, we work closely with our players to ensure they are matched with suitable partnerships. This can range from outfitter deals, product endorsements, charity partnerships and personal sponsorships. As trusted football agents, we can also manage and maintain all image rights, ensuring players are aligned with the corrects brands and partners, as well as receiving positive exposure.

Social Media

Social media can be both an extremely positive and negative place for the reputation of a player. A simple post or comment can land players in hot water with their clubs, resulting in large fines, or in extreme situations, a terminated contract. Here at CFI, we offer full support and guidance surrounding social media and how our clients conduct themselves online. As professional football agents, we ensure our players manage their social media profiles in an engaging and positive manner, whilst protecting their privacy in the process.

Mentorship

It’s essential in every professional football career that players are surrounded with a good team who can motivate, support and guide them. That’s why we work with former players to provide our clients with valuable knowledge and experience that is crucial for their progression. The mentorship team of our football agency is led by former Jamaican International, Chris Humphrey. We also work with players such as John Hartson and Emile Heskey, who can offer their own personal advice and guidance to players. We understand it can be daunting for young players entering professional and international levels, which is why we believe it to be important to work with people who have been in that same position.

Mental Health

CFI football agents take mental health very seriously. We work with and encourage our players to open up and discuss what they’re dealing with, helping them to work through and overcome mental health issues. Statistic show that one in four adults experience mental illness. Whether that be depression, anxiety, stress, or other mental health issues, we believe it takes great courage and strength to talk about mental health and ask for help.

Our founder and CEO, Ben Barrat, set up https://anxiety-gone.com/ after personally being affected by Anxiety. This website aims to help others manage their anxiety and to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues.

Mindfulness

In professional sport, your mindset is everything. It can change the way you play and affects life both on and off the pitch. Here at CFI, our football agency is committed to working with players to ensure they are mindful and take responsibility for their actions. It’s important to be self-aware in professional sports, which is why we have a team of professionals and life coaches who take an honest approach to mindfulness. We ensure our players are grounded and focused on being the best version of themselves.

Contract Negotiation

It’s an exciting time when a player receives a new lucrative contract. Emotions can run high and players can get caught out and miss the smaller details within a contract.

As leading football agents, when one of our players receives a contract, we ensure it is in the best interests of their career, both in terms of financial reward and future planning. We make sure the correct clauses are included, for example, release clauses, performance related bonus, automatic 1 year options etc. We help to take the emotion out of the process with a proactive and logical approach that will benefit our clients in both the short and long term.
