Transfer window contd
Welcome to another lovely read of Like Marriage Like Football. Today we continue to explore the similarities of marriage and football with the conclusion to our last topic the‘transfer window.’
It is important to note that the agents are very important when it comes to negotiations during the transfer window.
In football, the agents always work in favour of the players - they search for a new team for the player, negotiate contracts, and manage the player’s welfare.
In 2005, before Mikel Obi signed for Chelsea he already signed for Manchester United, had a jersey number and was laughing like a 6year old the parents bought a bucket of ice cream for on the day of his press conference at Old Trafford but his agent Mr John Ola Shittu claimed he signed the deal under duress.
Shittu and Mikel went to the court of arbitration for sports and won the case, so he instead signed for Chelsea where he still plays currently and has won all the major titles in club football which includes the Uefa Champions League, Europa Cup, FA Cup and English Premier League.
That is what the football agents do, so for young footballers with agents that looks after their interest the sky is their limit.
In relationship, agents can be friends, parents, uncles, or aunties depending on the stage of your relationship. Like during scouting of your girl your friends mostly act as agents but in marriage introductions or rites your parents, uncles or aunties serve as agents.
After the scouting, negotiations, and all the intrigues leading up to a club getting a player or a guy gets a girl, the next stage is marriage. I bet you don’t need any special skills to say I do especially when he is a rich dude or massive football club.
Now, that the club has signed their target, what happens next? Now that she has said yes to your marriage proposal, what happens next? Let’s find out together.
