Mino Raiola, the Italian 'super agent' of football stars such as Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, is said to be 'very ill' after reports of his death were denied.
Raiola is the agent of Everton striker Moise Kean, currently on loan at Juventus, as had worked with Mario Balotelli, whose transfer to Liverpool he brokered in 2014.
It was recently reported in Germany that Raiola had been in intensive care for a lung condition not linked to COVID, before initial reports emerged from Italian TV station Tg La7 that he'd passed away on Thursday.
