” There are lots of talents in this country and my own job as an agent is to find them wherever they are, prepare them and showcase them so that they can become a star in future.

” I am happy to be one of those that passed the exercise.
“Our aims and objectives are to work with the young footballers.
“I work with talents who are within the age range of 15 to 20 because these are the young ones and they have longer time to play football.
