Freelance Football Scout

07/06/2026

While going through some old memories, I found my secondary school graduation book. Under the section “Future Plans”, I had written: “Players’ Agent (Football).”

At the time, I simply knew that I wanted to work in football. The idea of helping players led me into coaching, video analysis and scouting. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with clubs, broadcasting companies, players and agents. Meanwhile building a valuable network within the game.

Now, 17 years later, I’m proud to share that I have officially passed the FIFA Football Agent Exam and obtained my FIFA licence.

Looking forward to new partnerships, exciting opportunities, and helping players take the next step in their careers.

Visiting African Champions League finalist AS FAR Rabat in their impressive, modern stadium. The home team saw two goals ruled out, ending in a 0–0 draw against RS Berkane.

High intensity on the pitch, even higher in the stands, passionate support, nonstop energy, and fireworks throughout. A memorable first scouting trip in Africa 🇲🇦

Proud to have been involved in the scouting process leading to the move of Timothé Rupil to Helsingborgs IF, supporting him along the journey and being present at his presentation and first training in Sweden 🤝🏼

In close collaboration with licensed agent Raquel Rosa who made this transition smooth and successful.
We were involved from a scouting perspective by providing a detailed scouting profile and video analysis to highlight Timothé’s strengths. 💪🏼

Helsingborgs IF, 7-time Allsvenskan champions, provide a fantastic sporting environment for the next step in Timo’s career. Despite the snow and cold in Sweden, we were quickly warmed by the incredibly warm welcome, the trust, and the conversations we shared with the people at this true family club.

Congratulations to Timo, Raquel and Helsingborgs IF and looking forward to a successful season ahead! 🔥

Proud to have contributed to the transfer of Maksim Paskotsi from Grasshopper Club Zürich to KAA Gent.

After thorough data analysis and video scouting, Maksim emerged as a perfect fit. One that aligned well with KAA Gent’s playing style and squad needs.

Together with FIFA-licensed agent Francisco Rubio Fernández, who handled the official representation, and Niels Schilder, who coordinated tirelessly with all parties, we were able to bring this deal together.

Many thanks as well to Footwork Management and Maksim’s representatives for their trust and smooth collaboration throughout the process.

Great to help make an impact at this level and looking forward to following Maksim’s next steps at KAA Gent.

Wishing him all the best!

Thijs Dallinga – From Emmen U19 to Serie A Back in 2017, I created a player profile on Thijs Dallinga, who was playing for FC Emmen U19 at the time. After watching several of his games live, he stood out to me as a real striker — not flashy, but effective. A player who knew where to be, how to finish, and worked hard for his team....
