Contract Negotiation
At Skelland Brown Management, contract negotiation is built on 30+ years of experience. Every contract is more than numbers and clauses - it is a reflection of a player's value, ambitions and future potential.
Our team approaches every negotiation with meticulous preparation and strategic insight. We analyse market trends, assess club needs and draw on an extensive global network spanning 20+ countries to secure terms that protect our clients' long-term interests.
What we negotiate
- Salary, performance bonuses and signing-on fees structured around your career trajectory.
- Image rights and commercial entitlements - protecting your brand inside and outside the contract.
- Release clauses, buy-out provisions and exit pathways that preserve future optionality.
- Loan structures, sell-on percentages and add-ons that capture upside for the player.
- Welfare, relocation and family-support provisions that make a move work in real life.
How we work
- 1Listen first. We understand your goals, family situation and red lines before any conversation with a club.
- 2Build the case. Comparable deals, market data and performance evidence become the spine of every negotiation.
- 3Negotiate hard, transparently. You are kept fully informed; nothing is agreed without your sign-off.
- 4Lock it down. Legal review, signing logistics and aftercare are handled end-to-end.
