No agenda here and personally couldn't care if you're ITK or not. But... Why would he have numerous agents? Is it normal for a player to have several agents? Surely it's not in his or the agents' interest for a player to be represented by 3 or more agents? Doesn't make sense to me - but plenty of foreign players DO have more than one agent - sometimes more than two. Then there are their contracts which, at foreign clubs, are sometimes held by two or more interested parties. Logic doesn't seem to come into it.

That agency may have numerous employees that look after all the clients on the books. On most occasions if a player moves to a different country, the players agent will contact and agency in the country he is hoping to move to who would have a better understanding of the clubs in that country and may have already had dealings with the club involved. So 2 agents can be used but never anyone as the players agent would have to for go some of his fee to allow the agent brokering the deal some of that deal

Fair play. Like I said not using it to doubt the OP, just doesn't make sense to me to have 'numerous' agents working on behalf of one player.

There have been plenty of instances of agreements being made with one agent, then someone else popping up and claiming rights too. So I don't think that is that far fetched, but I can't see how anyone posting on here would be privy to that type of information.

There is quite a bit that doesn't add up. As someone has already mentioned, Roma have made a formal bid for him to Kiev. They bid €15 million first that got rejected and then €18 million that also got rejected. Dortmund have had a bid of €20 million rejected as well, Kiev are holding out for €25 million.
If he is waiting for clubs that are playing in Europe then you don't get much better than two clubs in the champions league.
I would love us to get Yarmolenko but i just don't see it, not when there are clubs as big as Roma, Dortmund and Liverpool interested and making bids.

Homzy said on Twitter that the deal we tried to do last summer was complicated by the number of agents involved.

Joking aside a lot of the semi top European clubs who have qualified for Europe aren't necessarily paying top wages are they lately so this might be one area where we might( only might) get a small edge.

I don't think any of those have been formal bids this summer, although it was stated that Roma was talking about a 15 million euro bid. If this is made up, there was some good work done to do it. It certainly passes the eyeball test. There is quite a bit that doesn't add up. As someone has already mentioned, Roma have made a formal bid for him to Kiev. They bid €15 million first that got rejected and then €18 million that also got rejected. Dortmund have had a bid of €20 million rejected as well, Kiev are holding out for €25 million.

The two Roma bids were definitely formal bids in the last few months and not just rumour, the Dortmund one i'm not as sure about.

What makes you say that the Roma bids were formal bids, is it because the papers says so

What makes you say that the Roma bids were formal bids, is it because the papers says so No, 95% of what gets printed in the papers is tripe. It was said by a few normally very reliable Italian journalists that cover Serie A, similar to John Percy and Tony Barrett.

Whether we are in for Yarmolenko or not, he would certainly suit us down to the ground, wouldn't he? That video sums him up -big, strong, fast, two footed, skilful, scores some great goals and can operate either as a conventional winger or an inverted winger and appears to be able to cross equally well with either foot. I'd be absolutely over the moon if we signed him. When we got promoted the two clubs I hoped we would match one day were Villa and Everton. We've obviously finished above Villa (twice I think?) and if we start to sign players like Yarmolenko, I think I'd start to believe we might just match Everton in the next year or so. I guess the other top Prem clubs are worried that he isn't totally consistent but to a club like ours, he's as good a wide striker/winger as we will ever get. I'm sure its a pipe dream but it isn't half a good one!

For some reason Adam doesn't seem to have replicated his free kick and corner ability that he showed at Blackpool. One of the highlights of the TP era was when we had superb free kick and corner routines from Pennant and Ethers.

Wouldn't mind him coming here, but he will be an expensive player. Is he really much better than Odemwingie? I think we rather should pay £5-6M for Redmond and let Arnie and Wingie keep up where they left last season (I know Wingie played the striker role too!). This is a decent starting 11 to me! ..............Bego............. Bardsley...Shawx..Wilson...Pieters .........N'Zonzi..Whelan.......... Odemwingie...Ireland...Arnautovic ............Diouf................
