Sebastian Cano
Agencia Secasports

The SECASPORTS Football Agency is a company founded in the year 2000 in Valencia (Venezuela) by Sebastián Cano, a FIFA agent. From the very beginning, its purpose has been to train, guide, and advise players in their careers. This initiative was inspired by Cano’s own life story, who was a footballer during his childhood and youth stages. He always felt that perhaps he needed a sports advisor to guide his career in order to make a significant leap into professional football. Hence, this vocation he developed years later as a trainer and football agent; furthermore, this was a field little explored and developed in Venezuela, not only in the sports realm but also socially.

It all began with the development of a medium- and, above all, long-term strategic plan, which has now made the company the largest and most important football representation, consultancy, and advisory firm in Venezuela. It was years of tremendous sacrifice, financial investment, and time. The decision was made to start working with talents from a very young age, some of them still children, organizing their careers and their parents’ vision. Valencia, the capital of the Carabobo state, was and still is the headquarters of this beautiful adventure. The first player they began working with was Luis Manuel Seijas, since he was 12 years old. The travels, preparation, and periods of study began, until Cano became the country’s second FIFA agent — the first and only one from Carabobo. Various trips throughout South America and Europe to the best player agent training schools, along with meetings with businessmen dominating part of the global market, helped to gain a clearer, more technical, and deeper vision of where they wanted to go and how to do it, so they could properly determine the path to follow. Of course, this was done with a Venezuelan essence and a touch combined with some methods seen abroad until finding their own formula based on the culture of our country. They marked the Venezuelan territory and began traveling throughout the entire national geography to meet face to face with the best talents — those who at that moment gave them hope and aligned with their most important work premise: "FIRST THE PERSON, THEN THE TALENT." This is how they started finding human beings with incredible family values; and others facing many difficulties. Rough diamonds to be polished.
