About

Argentum Sport is a Croatia–based boutique football agency focused on players in the Balkans, Greece and wider Central & Eastern Europe, with growing reach into Scandinavia and Cyprus. The agency positions itself as a “hands-on” career management partner, working with both established professionals and promising U23 players in top domestic leagues and stepping-stone competitions. With a verified, licensed presence on major football data platforms and a roster spread across Croatia’s SuperSport HNL, the Greek Super League, Bundesliga, Ekstraklasa, Allsvenskan and regional leagues, Argentum specialises in carefully sequenced moves that turn regional standouts into reliable top-flight performers.
