Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Super agent Carmine \u201cMino\u201d Raiola, better known as Mino Raiola, has died. He was 54.<\/p>\n

The Italian, who was one of the most influential agents in football, has represented top players from European leagues.<\/p>\n

Raiola represented the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Marco Verratti, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Matthijs de Ligt, Erling Haaland and Mario Balotelli.<\/p>\n

His death was announced by his family via a statement shared on his Twitter account.<\/p>\n

The confirmation from Raiola\u2019s family came two days after reports alleged that the super-agent had died.<\/p>\n

The statement shared by Raiola\u2019s family on his Twitter account on Saturday, 30 April, read:<\/p>\n

In infinite sorrow, we share the passing of the most caring and amazing Football Agent that ever was.<\/p>\n

Mino fought until the end with the same strength he put on negotiation tables to defend our players. As usual, Mino made us proud and never realized it.<\/p>\n

Mino touched so many lives through his work and wrote a new chapter in the history of modern football. His presence will forever be missed.<\/p>\n

Mino\u2019s mission of making football a better place for players will continue with the same passion.<\/p>\n

We thank everybody for the huge amount of support received during these difficult times and ask for respect for the privacy of family and friends in this moment of grief.<\/p>\n
