An Insider’s Guide To Football Contracts And Sports Agents with Sports Lawyer Daniel Geey
For every sports deal, there’s always a behind-the-scenes.
While the fans only see the reactions and celebrations when the deal is done, the athletes see much more.
From negotiating the contract to drawing up the contract to agreeing to personal terms before signing on the dotted line.
A lot goes on behind the scenes. For many young athletes who eventually scale up to the elites, this is something they eventually deal with.
