'Excellent . . . an in-depth excavation of the murky and mysterious
world of football business. Smith's candid and often shocking book
reveals the true workings of football business that take into
account things few of us even could even imagine . . . The Deal
answers some of those questions and leaves you wanting more. It is
an educational tool that most fans could do with researching' Joe
Short, Express Football analysis has grown at the same exponential
rate as the sport's popularity and yet one of its most intrinsic
elements remains tantalisingly opaque: the role of 'agent'. The
Deal is a unique and fascinating perspective into the business of
sports management through the eyes of 'Mr Football', 'super-agent',
Jon Smith. 800,000 watch their professional football team play each
week and TV pulls in audiences of around 600 million. Despite these
phenomenal figures, the complex money-making scene behind sport is
one of its biggest mysteries. The Deal will be an unprecedented
insight into this world, showing what goes on as players and big
money change hands. The Deal is also the story of one of the
shrewdest and most successful businessmen of our time. Documented
through Jon's personal rollercoaster of high-flying success to near
bankruptcy, the book's over-arching narrative will offer an
inspiring personal journey as well as insider knowledge of
brokering deals at a high level and under extreme pressure. The
Deal will appeal strongly to buyers of business books as well as a
significant number of sports fans interested to know what goes on
in the back room of their favourite sport.
