Who I work with

I represent a small group of talented players so I can stay close to every situation: contracts, next moves and the daily reality at the club.

Professional & elite youth players Families looking for guidance Clubs needing clear communication

I don’t promise overnight miracles. I care about the level of the league, the coach, the dressing room and the long-term path of the player.

About Ariel

From the pitch to the negotiation table.

Player running with the ball

I grew up inside the game and understand both sides: the player and the club. As a FIFA licensed agent, my work is to translate that understanding into smart decisions: which offer fits the player, what to reject, and when it’s better to stay where you are and improve.

I maintain strong, direct relationships with academies, professional clubs and development staffs across Europe, the Balkans and other international markets. These connections allow me to place players only where they truly fit – technically, mentally and for their long-term development.

I prefer honest conversations over sales talk. If I don’t believe a move is right I say it clearly, even when it’s the “bigger” club on paper. The aim is a stable, growing career, not just a nice picture on social media for one week.

How I work

  • Direct contact with players and families, no layers of people in the middle.
  • Respect for clubs and coaches, clear, professional communication only.
  • Transparency on commission, contract terms and realistic options.
