It's not. He's literally a parasite. There is nothing beneficial about any of his deals. His clients are perennially on the move (with the exception of Pavel Nedved). He stands to gain more from Haland's deal in one day than the player will earn in 3 years. If that isn't the very definition of leech I don't know what is. Exactly what, pray tell, is the value Mino Raiola adds to Erling Haland, Dortmund or football?
I think your also actually arguing my point as well - your use of the word parasite by definition isn’t far off what
agents roles are in general (arguably in any field ie recruitment agent, real estate agent, etc. - and I don’t mean to offend anyone’s occupation, just using your argument of the term parasite). An agent is by definition a facilitator rather than a necessary part of a process.
However, this doesn’t mean he isn’t doing
his job (as a agent) well. Regarding your questions, my point is he doesn’t need to add any value to Dortmund or Football. The value he’s added for Haaland is that he’s advanced Haaland’s career, got him a huge pay rise, and opened up further earning and career progression opportunities for him if he wants it down the track. He’s done his job for Haaland, he’s getting paid for it (obscenely well). Dortmund have agreed to it. Footballs governing bodies allow it.
I’ll restate I don’t like Railoa one bit. But it’s not hard to see why his clients work with him.
Personally I’m still gutted we missed out on Haaland, as I think he is / will be a great player. We’ll see if we’re in for him again in 2 years time...
