After Sports Consultancy

What After Sports Consultancy does

After Sports Consultancy (ASC) is a privately-held London-based sports management and consultancy agency representing professional footballers across the full career lifecycle, from emerging young talent through to established elite players and post-football transition. The agency is headquartered at 2nd Floor, Berkeley Square House, Berkeley Square, Mayfair, London W1J 6BD, and operates exclusively within the United Kingdom. ASC's stated proposition is selective, quality-over-quantity representation built on personalised attention rather than roster scale, with the agency's ethos extending beyond on-field career management into financial literacy and generational wealth planning.

The agency's service portfolio comprises twelve integrated offerings rather than discrete product modules: Career Development, Contract Negotiations, Commercial Marketing, PR and Media, Tax Advisory, Club Transfers, Well-being Nutrition, Financial Advisory, In-House Scouting Analysis, Mentorship and Career Development, Content Production and Social Media, and 1-on-1 Elite Training Sessions. This breadth positions ASC as a holistic athlete-management platform rather than a traditional transfer-negotiation agent, with explicit service lines in content production, financial advisory, and post-football career transition into business advisory, punditry, management, media opportunities, and coaching. Named clients visible on the company's website and testimonials include former Premier League players Carlton Cole, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Quincy Owusu Abeye, Abdul Osman, and Ian Wright, alongside emerging talents such as Mukasa, Joshua, Chris, and D'margio Wright-Phillips.

ASC operates on a commission-based professional services revenue model, earning fees on negotiated contracts, transfer dealings, and ongoing management of its client roster. Its go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, relying on industry reputation, personal networks, and high-profile client testimonials rather than paid marketing. The primary demand-generation channel is the @aftersportsconsultancy Instagram account, which doubles as a distribution platform for athlete-ambassador endorsements. No technology platform, app, API, or proprietary software product underpins the business; the operating model is fundamentally human-capital-intensive and bespoke.
