Is it right that managers can have the same agents as players, Eddie How is said to have the same agents as Tino Livramento for instance, that is a conflict of interest in transfer negotiations, both for the player and the manager.
Not sure what the answer is other than having manager and coaches only agents |  |

It goes deeper than that.
An agent can act for player and club in a transfer. Many have done this and whilst I'm not going into detail here, this gives rise to an opportunity for tax to be avoided and HMRC are very interested and have a number of live enquiries.
The concept however of an agent trying to get the best for a player and the best for a club when that equation cannot be balanced, is just flawed.
Agents acting for player and manager I think is less of a problem. |  | | |

As far as the club is concerned, there's no problem with an agent acting for both player and manager. Theoretically it could be an issue for Tino. Theoretically, Howe could use the agent to pressure Tino to accept a deal that favours Howe and Newcastle over ManU, for example, to Tino's disadvantage. But that's not an issue for the club if both offers are accepted.
If I was Tino I would want to be sure my agent was acting in my interests not Howe's, but I'm sure he won't do too badly out of any deal anyway. | | | |
