Brazilian lawyer Rafaela Pimenta is the heir to the empire built by former agent Mino Raiola, who passed away last Saturday (30) at the age of 54. The former teacher worked alongside the Italian almost two decades ago.
Currently living in Monaco, where the office of One Sarl, a company founded by the sports mega-entrepreneur, is located, Pimenta was recently in charge of managing the interests of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba. The French player would have even learned a few words in Portuguese.
The Brazilian is quite discreet, as her social networks are closed to the general public and she does not make many public appearances. According to the newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, she is fluent in at least six languages.
Pimenta is also the owner of One Sarl and, with Raiola's passing, will lead the company's business from now on. She will also have the support of Vincenzo, the former agent's cousin, who will be responsible for the majority of athletes who play on Italian soil.
The next transfer window will be extremely important for the Brazilian lawyer, as the futures of Pogba, Erling Haaland and Zlatan Ibrahimovic are at stake at their respective teams, which are Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund and Milan.
Among the players managed by the company created by Raiola are also Mario Balotelli, Marco Verratti, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Moise Kean and Matthijs De Ligt.
According to the local press, Raiola's children, Mario and Gabriele, live in Montecarlo with their mother, but they have not yet decided whether or not they will follow the same career as their father.
