Fusion Group Agency looks after footballers – and wants to connect with you

Young footballers need to be nurtured. If they are going to go on to become the best talent in the world, or even if they want to enjoy the beautiful game then they need someone who knows what they are doing to look after them. The Fusion Group Agency looks after promising footballers and coaches both on and off the pitch. It was founded by former footballers that have a true passion for the game. This passion shines through in everything they do. The future of football agencies is safe in the hands of people like the Fusion Group. They really do cover all angles of a career in football. They understand what is important.


As they are experienced in the pressures that a young football player faces then the Fusion Group Agency is in a unique position to help out players that want to make it further in the game. They have the best interests of the players at heart, whether they are young players or pros. A football player or coach is in a vulnerable position. Their career can be ended by a bad tackle, a run or poor form and they can be exploited by unscrupulous agents or managers. This is where Fusion Group Agency is different. They have an array of experts on hand to help a player with all aspects of their life – not just on the pitch.


The transfer window is a critical time in the life of a footballer and Fusion Group Agency listen to their players concerns. This allows them to understand what the player is thinking and advise a best course of action. Helping young players to understand their choices and make an informed decision is an important part of being an ethical agent. Player welfare is at the top of the priorities of the Fusion Group Agency and they exist to assist a player or coach in growing as a human being rather than being viewed as a money-making machine. They have contacts in the top European Leagues to get their players access to the best opportunities.

The services they provide include-
  •          CAREER MANAGEMENT
  •          TRANSFER NEGOTIATION
  •          CONTRACT NEGOTIATION

Watching the football coaches on FNF

I have been on an FA coaching course recently and it was a really good way to get into the coaching of my kids football team. The course was very comprehensive and will help me no end on my coaching journey. But what it wasn't was a complete journey. It is meant to set me off to go and learn about what we are doing as coaches and learn and adapt.



One of the tips at the end of the course was to go out and watch other coaches. I have watched some local games to see what other amateur coaches are doing and it all fits quite nicely with the way I want my players to play the game. And this is also the way that the FA want the game to be played in this country.

And I try to watch what the coaches are up to when I watch the big BPL matches like Chelsea v Liverpool tonight. Antonio Conte and Jurgen Klopp are coaches with impressive records behind them and will both be looking for a Champions League place this season.



Obviously you don't get to see as much as you would like of the coaches from a television screen but the glimpses that are shown are fascinating. Players don't hear the vast majority of what a coach says in the heat of the match against the noise from the crowd. But some coaches scream and shout as though their lives depended on it. Meaningful input to players close by would be more effective.

I hope to bring a style of play to my team. We will pass the ball around and stay true to this all the time. Let's hope that the way Chelsea and Liverpool play tonight shows the way!
