I’m pretty sure Gareth couldn’t just sack his agent. There will be a contract, very much like his contract with Madrid with minimum terms etc.
In fact, I’m fairly certain we’ve actually had it a few years back with a player (possibly Dele) where a contract extension wernt signed until his deal with his agent ended and he was with his new agency.
We’re not talking about some cockney wide boy pulling up a chair and negotiating up some old table and figures done on the back of a fag packet. This is a multi billion pound industry with contracts written by the most legally savvy people in the world.
Besides who says he’s not happy with his agent? Looks to me like his agent is doing exactly as he’s being paid to do, keep his clients financial interests a priority and what a fine job he is doing!
