Super Agent Raiola Mino Dies

Italian super agent, Mino Raiola, has died of an illness in Milan aged 54.

Raiola was the agent of superstars Erling Haaland, Paul Pogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Romelu Lukaku and Marco Veratti.

According to reports the 54-year-old had been hospitalised in Milan where he underwent surgery for an undisclosed illness.

It was also speculated that the illness was non-life-threatening as he was expected to make a full recovery.

A statement from his family reads, “In infinite sorrow, we share the passing of the most caring and amazing football agent that ever was.

“Mino fought until the end with the same strength he put on negotiation tables to defend our players. As usual, Mino made us proud and never realised it.

“Mino touched so many lives through his work and wrote a new chapter in the history of modern football. His presence will forever be missed.

“Mino’s mission of making football a better place for players will continue with the same passion.”
