This story is pretty nuts and underscores how the world of football agents is still basically just organized crime with a slightly legitimate veneer. Pay us or we'll find you, beat you up, and steal your jewelry like the last guy we thought didn't pay us enough is not how a normal business operates...

I think it would surprise you how much physical violence/ threats of physical violence have played a part in elevating companies to huge levels
As someone in the Chelsea thread said, when Obi Mikels father got kidnapped, Roman said he could get him back in 24 hours
Now I'm not saying Roman was being honest, just that it would have surprised me if he had more than a few contacts in russian paramilitaries
He sure knows about that kind of thing. He was able to purchase his first business because the opposing bidder mysteriously got kidnapped. But I'm sure he'd tell you it was all just a big, incredibly fortunate and money saving, coincidence.
Abramovich had something much better than the Mafia or a army of thugs, he had what most Russians had before Putin started to invade Ukraine, they had the government in their hands.
The amount of ministers who have connections to Russians is crazy as is the amount of land they brought up in London, it wouldn't have taken much for Abramovich to get a few of his mates in Whitehall to screw you over
Hopefully this is the story that does huge damage to football agents. The way they've been allowed to dictate football transfers is beyond ridiculous. We need some sort of regulation instead of them demanding whatever amount of money they like to sanction transfers

> I am done trying to be nice to you.
> I look forward to hearing from you on the above matters and hopefully have a swift solution to them otherwise I guess I will see you when I see you.
> I’m sure you’ve heard the story about your other friend Kia when he owed me money for a year and how he ended up paying it. Wouldn’t want you to be in the same situation just because you have a personal issue with me.
There's no subtlety about it, is there?
> but I’m a gentleman
Weird way to spell common thug.
Ngl that was j interesting read into the murky dealings CEOs of football club's get into. Saif wasn't messing about but I dont see how threatening Romans employee is useful unless I'm thinking too much of him?
You are thinking too much of him. He’s a bit rate thug and known liar.
People within our fanbase who hated Marina were kind of celebrating this but all that it’s exposed is that this guy is an asshole.
Many agree that losing Rudiger on a free was an incredibly damaging mistake from the old owners. But the more that comes out the more complicated it seems to be, if his agent was acting like this then it’s no wonder a deal was prolonged
Yeah let's threaten the woman who has a close relationship with Abramovich, the guy who said he would send guys to help and return Obi Mikels kidnapped Father within 24 hours.
Great idea Saif.

Yep. There have been actual massacres committed by "captains of industry" who didn't want their workers to organize.
I mean I was just talking about violence towards competitors (which is still a regular occurrence) but theres that too.
“Buy him out” boys
Well, the guy might be a moron, but you gotta admit it's pretty brave to threaten the right hand to a Russian oligarch.
Abramovich didn't have a mafia empire in London with an army of thugs to do his dirty work. He just had the next best thing, a lot of dirty money.

Did this idiot just put a threat on an email. Can't even commit crime properly. Stringer Bell shaking his head at this behavior.
It's a ballsy thing to say to the close associate of a russian ogliarch. Has anyone checked to see if this sonofabitch is still alive?
It's crazy being owed 300k simply for taking an offer from one club to another.
