Who exactly is Mino Raiola?
According to Goal, Raiola was born in Italy before he moved to the Netherlands where he grew up.
He started off his career as an entrepreneur after failing as a footballer, initially working in the hotel industry before he made a return to football.
However, his return to the game was to work as a sporting director for Haarlem, landing the lucrative role aged just 19.
He would later shift into sports agency, working at Sports Promotions, where he assisted in the transfers of high-profile Dutch footballers in the early 90s.
Having gathered enough experience, Raiola moved on to form his own agency, making a name for himself when he facilitated the transfer of Pavel Nedved from Sparta Prague to Italian side, Lazio, after the Euro 96.
Raiola has since managed to enlist a number of top footballers with his agency, including Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
Others include Borussia Dortmund hotshot Erling Haaland and veteran striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
