The commercial case
Potential sports agency revenue
If a single agency represented this entire pool, the addressable revenue is roughly $61.5M a year across three streams. Representation commission is the recurring base; transfer commission is lumpy but larger per event; commercial income is concentrated in a small elite.

How the fee model works
$33.8M
Representation
10% of gross annual salary. The recurring base, and the most predictable of the three. 80 of these salaries are sourced from Capology rather than modelled.
$23.0M
Transfer
6% of market value multiplied by the probability the player moves in a given year. Lumpy per player, steady across a book of 459.
$4.80M
Commercial
15% of estimated image-rights and endorsement income, which concentrates heavily in a small tier-1 elite.
