Valencian startup Scoutim, which puts players in contact with sports organizations worldwide, has closed a strategic alliance with Gerardo Piris, recognized agent of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), through which the renowned intermediary becomes the new partner and investor of the sports platform.

Piris, with extensive experience in intermediation of players for LaLiga, MLS and Liga MX Bancomer, joins the project "for the potential that Scoutim has of becoming the tool of the future for attracting players worldwide", as explained from the company driven by Jon Fatelevich.

“The technology of the platform helps us reach players from anywhere in the world, much faster and more segmented, in addition to reducing our recruitment costs. Digitizing part of the selection processes is the future of scouting,” says the agent, known for the signings of players from our league to the American market such as Víctor Vázquez, Ager Aketxe or Wilfred Zahibo, as well as Bryan Acosta del Tenerife or Alejandro Pozuelo del Genk, among others:

In fact, Piris has already carried out several operations in Scoutim to attract talented youth for its representation agency that may interest the clubs with which it already works, as well as its Sports Unlimited company, specialized in sports scholarship management and / or academics in the USA - and thanks to which it has contact with more than 1,000 American universities.

Today, American coaches are constantly looking for players in Spain to offer football scholarships in US universities. "With Scoutim, we reduce recruitment costs and we can focus our work on serving children who are looking to compete in the United States without neglecting their studies, and better meet their needs," said Piris.

"That a representative of prestigious soccer players like Gerardo Piris bet on Scoutim and invest in our project is very important, demonstrates that we add value to athletes, intermediaries and sports organizations," says Fatelevich. "Since the launch of Scoutim we have shown that we can help hundreds of thousands of athletes from around the world to make themselves known and at the same time to clubs, universities, academies, representatives and teams to attract athletes without investing tens or hundreds of thousands of euros and time in human resources, travel, hotels, meetings, negotiations and many other costs incurred so far."
