Allan Bak
CEO, FOOTBALL AGENT LICENSED BY FIFA

Allan’s passion for football was aroused way back when he began kicking a ball as a young boy. This led to a professional career, playing for Ikast FS and FC Midtjylland in Denmark. In 2001, he was sold to SC Heerenveen in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, he was forced to retire in 2004 after long periods on the bench due to injury. Allan then moved to Copenhagen to work as an estate agent, but life without football was difficult. In 2007, he started his own football agency, Elite Consulting. He felt that his experience, knowledge of the business and negotiating skills could give professional footballers the help he wished he had had while he was still playing professionally. For the few hours in the day when Allan is not working, he is a busy father of two. Therefore, a few quiet hours on the golf course every now and then work wonders.
