Former professional footballer and manager Jimmy Carter will manage the new company, which will be supported by an advisory team that includes former footballer Les Ferdinand and Anthony Hamilton, father of 2008 F1 World Champion Lewis.
“Footballers deserve better representation than some guy with a mobile phone and a hotmail address,” said Blundell. “We are different. 2mb International Soccer Management will provide the kind of personalised commercial services and management support designed to help players focus 100% on their game.”
“After a long search, I am convinced that Jimmy Carter is the right person to lead 2mb International Soccer Management. Jimmy brings with him a unique combination of first-hand global football and business experience, which will benefit both established stars and young players coming through the ranks.”
Carter will move from his current job as sales and technical director at Brands Direct, where he grew sales from £4.5 million to £35 million in eight years.
