Contract Negotiation & Transfer

UNIO offers bespoke guidance to players navigating the global football landscape, ensuring pathways aligned with both professional aspirations and regional particularities. Under the stewardship of Miguel Donghyun Kim and Akira Kaminishizono—FIFA-licensed intermediaries representing our Korean and Japanese branches respectively—the negotiation process with clubs is conducted with discretion, strategic clarity, and unwavering professionalism. At every juncture, UNIO remains a steadfast presence by your side.

Career Planning

UNIO provides comprehensive, individualised career planning that spans every stage of a player’s journey—from the early days of professional life to retirement and beyond. Guided by the belief that a truly fulfilling career lies at the intersection of talent, opportunity, and personal happiness, our team supports both short- and long-term goals through strategic guidance, contract advice, and life-after-football preparation. More than a management agency, UNIO stands as a lifelong partner, dedicated to shaping meaningful paths for each unique career.

Legal Assistance

With the expertise of Attorney Mr Soonghee Cho, UNIO offers comprehensive legal counsel to ensure that players are protected not only on the pitch but beyond it. Whether navigating the complexities of contracts, safeguarding personal rights, or addressing unforeseen legal matters off the field, our legal support is pragmatic, discreet, and always in the best interest of the player. At UNIO, we believe that true representation extends beyond football—into every facet of a player’s professional and personal life.

Branding Management

In the modern era of sport, professional athletes are no longer just players—they are brands in their own right. At UNIO, we recognise the commercial and reputational value of our players and work strategically to elevate their profiles through partnerships with global brands, meticulous evaluation of endorsement opportunities, and long-term image cultivation. In addition to commercial development, we support our players in media engagement, providing guidance on public communication, interview preparation, and social media strategy. Our aim is not only to maximise value, but to ensure each athlete projects a coherent, confident, and authentic presence—both on and off the pitch.

Perfect Concierge

For those who give their utmost on the pitch, a life of equal excellence off the pitch is not a luxury, but a necessity. UNIO provides discreet and bespoke concierge services tailored to the unique needs of each player—from exclusive restaurant and hotel reservations to property acquisition and lifestyle arrangements. Our mission is to ensure that our athletes can focus fully on their game, while enjoying a seamless and enriched personal life supported by a trusted team behind the scenes.
