Adoré par ses joueurs, craint par les clubs, ce fils d'imigrés italiens aux Pays-Bas était devenu un personnag.

À l’été 2016, lors du transfert Paul Pogba de la Juventus de Turin à Manchester United, Mino Raiola fait du milieu de terrain français le joueur le plus cher du monde (110 millions de francs) mais bat un autre record en touchant une commission estimée à 49 millions. Mendes et Raiola se rejoignent dans leur manière de pénétrer le marché. D'abord en s'attirant les faveurs de bons joueurs, pour s'ouvrir la porte de grands clubs. Le futur joueur le plus cher du monde se retrouve sans agent ce 30 avril. Le club, à travers son président, présente à sa famille et ses proches toutes ses condoléances», a réagi le PSG sur Twitter.

En fait, les deux «super-agents» que même les non-amateurs de football connaissent ont peu de points communs.

MILAN (AP) — Mino Raiola, the influential and often controversial sports agent to some of soccer's biggest players, has died. He was 54.

Raiola compared FIFA to a mafia organization in 2013 and called the governing body’s then-president Sepp Blatter a “demented dictator.” “Mino touched so many lives through his work and wrote a new chapter in the history of modern football. Raiola died after a long illness, his family confirmed on Saturday. He had been undergoing treatment at Milan’s San Raffaele hospital, where he was visited by Zlatan Ibrahimović this week. As usual, Mino made us proud and never realized it.” Raiola was a youth team soccer player and administrator before starting his career as a sports agent by assisting in the transfer of Dutch players to foreign clubs. “In infinite sorrow we share the passing of the most caring and amazing football agent that ever was,” read a post from “The Raiola Family” on his social media accounts.

Un agent par ailleurs vent debout contre la Fifa qui entend réglementer la profession et plafonner les commissions: « Comment est-ce possible de mettre une limite au talent? Pour devenir l'un des agents les plus en vue du football mondial, à la tête de l'une des écuries de joueurs les plus prestigieuses, Mino Raiola a profité du développement des transferts internationaux dans les années 1990, dans la foulée de l'arrêt Bosman, et de l'explosion des droits TV au 21e siècle. S'entendre avec le gourmand Raiola était parfois difficile.

L'agent de joueur Mino Raiola est mort ce samedi, a annoncé son entourage dans un communiqué publié sur Twitter.

He is said to have raised €40m for Pogba’s move to Manchester United. The cost of the French is 105 million euros. He spoke of his players as the greatest painting artists. He dealt with the interests of, among others, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba or Erling Haaland.

Personnalité haute en couleur, il était devenu en une trentaine d'années un acteur incontournable du marché des transferts entre grands clubs.

Pour les défendre, Raiola les met en valeur comme des tableaux (Zlatan est ainsi sa Joconde, Matthijs de Ligt sa Ronde de nuit de Rembrandt) et va au conflit pour défendre leurs intérêts et les siens. « Il n’est pas ami avec les patrons de clubs mais il l’est avec ses joueurs. Il prend aussi le temps de discuter avec les dirigeants du FC Haarlem. « A un moment donné, ils lui ont simplement dit : puisque tu en sais tellement, pourquoi tu ne rejoindrais pas la direction ? », témoignait un journaliste local, Edwin Struis, auprès de l’Agence France-Presse en 2016. En 1993, il place à l’Inter Milan deux des stars de l’Ajax Amsterdam, Dennis Bergkamp et Wim Jonk. Mino Raiola ne servira plus jamais de pizzas. La trajectoire des deux hommes raconte pourtant la même histoire, celle de deux forts en gueule partis de pas grand-chose, pour devenir des personnages aussi incontournables que décriés du mercato, ce spectacle devenu permanent de l’économie des transferts. Depuis une trentaine d’années, l’agent italien était devenu un des acteurs incontournables du marché des transferts dans le football.

La famille de Raiola avait démenti jeudi de "fausses informations", relayées par de nombreux médias italiens, sur la mort de l'agent, dont l'état de santé fragile était connu depuis plusieurs mois. "Mino s'est battu jusqu’à la fin avec la même force qu'il mettait quand il était à la table des négociations pour défendre ses joueurs", selon le communiqué. De Zlatan Ibrahimovic à Paul Pogba en passant par le prodige Erling Haaland ou Gianluigi Donnarumma, l'agent de joueurs Mino Raiola, dont le décès à l'âge de 54 ans a été annoncé par sa famille samedi, était l'un des plus influents intermédiaires du monde du football.

Raiola, who represented stars like Pogba, Haaland, and Ibrahimovic, transformed the role agents play in modern football with his unique skill set.

They gave him a chance and he delivered -- just as he did a few years later when he set off a bidding war between Juventus, Napoli and Inter to secure Bergkamp. This is a man who elbowed his way into the big time. Some have questioned that, but the fact that so few did leave him -- and that so many coming through the ranks (Haaland is a prime example) specifically chose him -- suggest there's more than a kernel of truth in it. When Pogba moved from Juventus to Manchester United for a fee of around $100m and signed a five-year contract, it later emerged that every party in the deal paid him: the selling club (Juventus), the buying club (United) and Pogba himself. They don't want the truth because deep down, in a place they don't want to talk about at parties, they want him on that call. You say we're the problem and then you come to us, again and again and again." "But who is it that you call in the middle of the night when you want to sign a player or, even more so, when you need to shift a player?

Mino Raiola, one of the most high-profile agents in world football, has died following illness.

As usual, Mino made us proud and never realized it.

Après celui de Paul Pogba en 2016, record de l’époque, le puissant agent a fait signer Matthijs De Ligt à la Juventus pour 85 millions d’euros à l’été 2019.

L’ancien capitaine de l’Ajax est devenu du même coup le défenseur le plus cher de l’histoire. Un titre honorifique qu’il ne gardera pas longtemps : trois semaines plus tard, Harry Maguire le dépassait avec une indemnité de 87 millions d’euros dépensée par Manchester United pour le faire venir de Leicester. « Personne ne voulait d’Eto’o à l’Inter. Même Mourinho, pour qui la seule chose importante était de ne pas perdre Ibrahimovic », a notamment déclaré l’agent un an plus tard au média italien Sportmediaset. Carmine Raiola, plus connu sous le nom de Mino Raiola, est décédé ce samedi 30 avril à 54 ans, des suites d’une maladie pulmonaire.

He was a Holland international who came from Ajax. But he got used to it soon enough.” Thanks in part to Raiola, who moved out to Puglia, the heel of the boot of Italy, with Roy and would drive him to and from training. “It got me going,” Ibrahimovic remembered, “and it got me more of a winner’s mindset.” The result was the move he wanted. I told him, ‘That player doesn’t exist’.” But this 23-year-old Czech winger Raiola was on the brink of moving to PSV Eindhoven after helping his country be surprise finalists at Euro 96 came closest to fitting the bill. “We’d booked a table there, and I really didn’t know what sort of a person to expect,” he wrote in his eponymous biography I Am Zlatan Ibrahimovic, “probably some sort of pinstriped fella with an even bigger gold watch (than me). But who the hell turned up? An Italian agent who used to bring players over from the Eredivisie to Serie A liked the food on the menu, as did a few footballers and the owner of the local football club, who would make Raiola the head of their academy and then sporting director. “(Mino) challenged the entire Netherland Football Association, and he didn’t start off dealing with small fry.” “In the Netherlands, there used to be a really crazy system where players had to be sold according to a price that was based on their age and a bunch of statistical crap,” Ibrahimovic recalled. He worked long hours, doing the dirty work, and as he got older he came to be entrusted with the books and negotiations with the restaurant’s suppliers. “My father said to me when I was a small boy that 50 per cent of the people in your life will love you and 50 per cent will hate you,” Raiola told The Athletic just over a year ago.

He was a born trader and hardball negotiator who prided himself on his small stable of players.
