Phil Korklin: Avoid Pitfalls, Select the Right Agent

Football Agent Phil Korklin shares his expertise on the role of agents in youth football and the importance of finding the right support to support a young person’s career from the start.  

Phil addresses common misconceptions about agents, particularly the idea that they simply provide free merchandise.  

He emphasises that this transactional view can lead to starting relationships on the wrong foot. Instead, parents should consider what specific support they need from an agent and do their research.
