Freddy Looking for a new agent


Freddy Adu is looking for a new agent. Up until this point, Freddy was represented by WMG who signed Freddy when he came into the MLS at age 14, but Freddy is looking to go in another direction by signing with another career management group, possibly IMG.

What could this mean for Benfica?
With new management, Freddy will delineate objectives he would like to achieve, and it'll be up to that firm to help him. If Freddy signs with IMG, you can bet that IMG will work very hard and aggressive to make a significant impression on their new client. Exiting Benfica at this point, might be something that Freddy has in mind, and it'll all depend on what he feels from Benfica.
Despite not playing much this season, only Benfica really knows what their intentions will be for Freddy. Benfica invested in the future when they acquired Freddy, and their future may very well have been planned with the intentions of Freddy being one of the main players on the team. The question really is, if this is the case, and if Freddy knows this, in which case the thought of leaving Benfica might be very remote. However, no one really knows what is going on with Freddy and Benfica. With this change, there is a risk of Freddy leaving, but that will all depend how the club has treated him on a personal and professional level.
His sudden disappearance from game rosters, is definitely something that has to be bothering Freddy. Whether his exclusions have been explained to him, and he accepts them, is another story altogether.
Many have already speculated that, like a few others before him, Benfica will "throw away" talent that will later blossom somewhere else.
