Mino Raiola, powerful soccer player agent, has denied in a message on his official Twitter account that he has died. Italian media had reported that the agent, who represents several of the most important soccer players in the world, lost his life after a few months of complications in his health. Media from all over the world, including this one, echoed the news. But Raiola’s entourage has stepped up to the information.

“Update on my health status for those wondering: pissed off that I’ve been killed for the second time in four months. Looks like I’m capable of resuscitation,” read a note posted from his Twitter account.
Raiola, an extravagant personality from the dark world of soccer intermediaries, is experiencing lung problems to the point that in January he was admitted to the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, despite the fact that they were later qualified in a statement in which indicated that Raiola “was subjected to ordinary medical controls requiring anesthesia. There has been no emergency intervention.”
Now he seems to be in a delicate situation, but not to the point of being dead. Before Raiola issued his statement via Twitter, the agent’s doctor dispelled the rumors in statements to the Ansa agency. “I am outraged by the calls from pseudo-journalists speculating about the state of a man who is struggling to survive,” said Dr. Alberto Zangrillo from the San Raffaele hospital.

Raiola has distinguished himself by being able to impose colossal commissions on the transfers of his footballers. He pocketed 48 million in the acquisition of Pogba by Manchester United; of 11.5 for the transfer to Barça of Ibrahimovic. The turnover of his company had exceeded 700 million.
It is indicated that for Haaland he asks for a commission of 40 million for himself. Joan Laporta came to meet him in Italy to try out the operation. Impossible figures for Barça.
