ABOUT US

At MVP, we pride ourselves on providing our clients with personalized management and representation services for their football careers. We are committed to helping our clients reach their full potential and become gamechangers so they can achieve their goals both on and off the field.

Our football player management company was founded by a former professional player who understands the challenges and demands of the sport firsthand. We have a team of experienced agents who are dedicated to helping our clients navigate the complex landscape of professional football and achieve success in their careers.

SERVICES

At MVP, we offer a comprehensive range of services that cover every aspect of a footballer’s career. From career management to financial advisory, our team of experienced professionals provides personalized and tailored solutions to help you navigate the complex landscape of professional football.

We provide strategic guidance and support throughout your career, from the early stages of talent identification and development to contract negotiations and transfer opportunities. Our vast network of industry contacts allows us to explore various options and find the best opportunities that align with your goals and aspirations.

LEGAL ASSISTANCE

The MVP Agency team includes a sports lawyer, who monitors all our legal affairs on a daily basis and provides a real-time response to all our players’ questions.

We have also selected a number of specialist law firms, recognised as the best in their respective areas of competence, to provide assistance in more complex matters.

The lawyer associated with MVP Agency works closely with players to provide advice and assistance at every meeting.

​Our expertise:
·         Contract law
·         Employment law
·         Image rights
·         Player/club disputes
·         Defending players’ interests in court

TAXATION

Professional athletes are a very specific group of individuals, who need “tailor-made” tax management based on the following two principles:
·         Their professional career only lasts for a limited time
·         Particular events may occur during the course of their career, such as injury, a sharp increase or decrease in income, a sudden end to their career or a desire to move abroad.

In response to this, MVP Agency has built close relationships to secure the services of the best advisers in the field.

The aim is to offer players personalised arrangements to reduce their tax burden to a minimum.

The MVP Agency team sits at the centre of its network of partners, providing the link between its asset manager and tax lawyer to implement tax optimisation tools.

​Our expertise:
·         Income tax optimisation
·         Tax arrangements specific to athletes (impatriates tax regime and smoothing mechanism)
·         Tax optimisation strategies and schemes

ASSET MANAGEMENT

Professional football careers are unusual in bringing in large sums of money over a limited timescale.

In response to this, MVP Agency offers its players the services of an asset manager, to provide financial solutions appropriate to their income and expenses.
Our aim is also to reassure our clients about their future, so that they can approach the end of their career with complete peace of mind.

As an independent adviser, our asset manager is well placed to offer clients the best products on the market for their specific needs. Their primary selection criterion is their ability to satisfy our players’ needs over the long term.

​Our expertise:
·         Legal and tax aspects of asset management
·         Legal structures
·         Tax optimisation
·         Property transactions
·         Accountancy services

PROPERTY

MVP Agency is aware that footballers often change clubs and have to move house during their careers, and therefore provides assistance on all property-related matters.

We are on hand to help players settle into their new club by helping them to find the home that best meets their needs.

In conjunction with our asset manager, we also specialise in helping our clients complete property transactions in the context of their personal investments.

​Our expertise:
·         Negotiation and transactions
·         Property lettings
·         Apartment hunting (for residential and personal investment purposes)
·         Property transactions for tax optimisation

SPONSORSHIP & COMMUNICATION

MVP Agency is in constant contact with all influential equipment managers in the world of football and is well equipped to negotiate its players’ sponsorship contracts during their career.

We also work on promoting our players’ image via social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram).

We firmly believe that the internet can be used as a lever to make our players’ image more attractive, with the aim of attracting brands (advertising contracts) and clubs (positive media coverage).

We are also committed to protecting our players’ image through our specialist lawyer (trademark registration and creation of image rights companies).

Our expertise:
·         Negotiating sponsorship contracts
·         Image promotion
·         Image protection

ADDITIONAL SERVICES

Top-level football demands an extremely well-developed sense of detail, so it was with this in mind that we decided to expand our team by surrounding ourselves with professionals in several areas.

In order to support our clients throughout the season or during transitional periods (when they are between clubs or on holiday), MVP Agency works in close cooperation with leading trainers, nutritionists and physiotherapists.

In addition, MVP Agency makes life easier for its clients by working with a concierge services provider, available 24/7 to satisfy their every need.
