But what I want is to destabilise the relationship between player and agent. Andy Evans is a lawyer and founder of World in Motion, an agency that has represented players and clubs since 1997. Evans is insistent the FA abdicated responsibility in April 2015 when Fifa devolved power over agents to individual associations. This offers no protection to the player from unscrupulous agents and allows multiple agency agreements to be in place at any one time. From the European perspective, football is a competitive industry - agents are considered as any recruitment company and these people are [usually] regulated.
