The boutique that inherited an empire
One Sports, led by Rafaela Pimenta, is the Monaco-based agency that inherited Mino Raiola's elite client stable after his death in 2022 — Pimenta having worked alongside him for eighteen years. It carries the roster of the former Raiola group under her single-principal control.
It is a deliberately small, high-end operation: roughly 32 clients, around 15 in top-tier leagues, anchored by Erling Haaland — the single most bankable footballer alive, on a Manchester City extension running to 2034. That makes it the highest revenue-per-client model among comparable agencies, and the standout woman-led shop at the very top of the market.
Roster, structure, and regulation
How the agency actually operates
This is the highest revenue-per-client model of its peer set: roughly 32 names, but one of them is the most bankable footballer alive, and a 2034 extension locks in a multi-cycle commission annuity. The economics rest on a handful of mega-deals rather than roster breadth.
Founder key-person risk is acute. There is no publicly named succession layer — the agency is Pimenta — which is both the woman-led story that distinguishes the shop and its structural fragility. The post-Raiola roster has eroded somewhat through departures, but the core (Haaland, Pogba, de Ligt) stayed, and several high-value claims around the book — a current Donnarumma mandate, a manager such as Arne Slot — could not be cleanly verified and should be confirmed before publication.
Direction in 2026
The posture is defending the inherited elite core against attrition, with Haaland the anchor. The open questions are the agency's actual registered name and corporate structure, the current status of contested client claims, and — most consequentially — the succession plan behind a single-principal boutique whose value is concentrated in one person and one extraordinary client.
