Founded in 2011 by Jonathan Maarek, who holds a Master’s degree in Sports Law, Classico was born from a simple conviction: just like on the pitch, a career is never built alone. It takes a strong, skilled, and committed team. Today, that’s exactly what we are — more than 20 dedicated experts, each in their role, providing our players with complete, tailor-made support.

We guide players from their very first steps in the professional world, with a global vision that considers every aspect of their journey — sporting, personal, and strategic. A personalized approach, built hand in hand with the player… and with the people who matter most around them.

From career management to legal affairs, marketing to club relations, performance to logistics — we’ve internalized the entire value chain that every professional footballer should have surrounding them.

Every player is unique. Our role is to unlock their full potential, map out a coherent and ambitious career path, and support them in achieving what many dream of, but few truly build.

At Classico, we don’t work to follow the market — we work to lead it. We build careers that are strong, demanding, and designed for the long term — with one driving obsession: to reach the highest level, and to stay there.
