An Israel-based FIFA-accredited soccer agent is in
Zambia to identify players he intends to market in the summer transfer
window, the Post of Zambia reported on Friday.
Nir Karin, who has a history of marketing Zambian players and is an
agent for most Zambian players abroad, will be in the country for three
weeks during which he will watch various games to identify players,
according to Post.
The 31-year-old agent has however advised Zambian soccer administrators not to overprice players who go trials abroad.
He said clubs should not hold on to players by pricing them
exorbitantly, adding that he has noticed that most clubs wanted to
over-price their players without considering their career progression.
"Clubs in Zambia should not hold on to players, they should not be
asking hundreds of thousands because they have one big player. They
should not play it big and put difficulties on the players' career
move," he was quoted as saying by the paper.
"The clubs also need to understand that once they sell one good
player in Europe and he excels, the European clubs will want more and
more. They will not stop there, but Zambian clubs need to open the
doors," he added.
