Something a bit tragic about Alli's decline. Only 26 and being binned off by Everton to play in Turkey. 15/16 and 16/17 inparticular he looked like a potential world beater. A world cup semi and champions league final all by 23 and washed up 3 years later.

I don’t think it was a bad move. Just that trying to get the appearance based fee was a bit optimistic. Would have been nice to compromise with Everton and just get 5m and be done with it so they don’t have to ship him out.
I look at Everton's squad and I really don't see how they aren't favorites for relegation. Especially with DCL currently injured and potentially selling Gordon, their forward group is comical.
 
How the F is his relationship with Wolves legal. They pay him a consulting fee and he guides a number of his clients to go there.
I listened to a pod with a Swedish agent this weekend. There are 3 ways for an agent to make money. 1 to get percentage from a client/player, 2 to get a fee from a buying club to find a player, 3 to get a fee from a selling club for helping to sell a player. Sometimes 1, 2 and 3 for one deal. I guess he's helping Wolves with 2 and 3, plus he's representing a few of Wolves players.

Edit. And yes, it seems like there is very few rules about what an agent can and can't do.
 
Sad, innit.... What a life opportunity.......
Weekend trips to Marseille and Milan. Skiing in the Italian Alps. Lil jaunt to Croatia, Berne, Munich or Barcelona. Beach house, mountain house, city house. Out there I'd buy a sweet lil coupe, find a sweet lil thing to drive around in it, and fuck off into a thousand sunsets.

It actually makes me kind of pissed off thinking how Winks turned all that down.
