May 20th, 2020
Juventus and Italy winger Federico Bernardeschi became the first Italian to sign a contract with the Roc Nation Sports agency, whose owner is rapper Jay-Z.
Until a few days ago Bernardeschi had been represented by the agent Beppe Bozzo of AGB Sport Management, who had contributed to the transfer of the Carrara native from Fiorentina to Juventus in the summer of 2017 for 40 million Euros.
However, Roc Nation Sports just this morning announced the 26-year-old's recruit through a tweet.

The American agency was founded by rapper and businessman Jay-Z in 2013 and among its client clients it can already boast real football stars such as Bayern Munich defender Jerome Boateng, Inter striker Romelu Lukaku, City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and, as we anticipated a few weeks ago, is in talks to conclude an agreement with Raheem Sterling too.
