GestiFute involved in numbers of high profile move in European transfer market, such as
Cristiano Ronaldo. Before
FIFA set up a new law restricting third party ownership (with "significant influence"), GestiFute was actively involved in third parties ownership. However, it in fact conflict of interests, as GestiFute was both the owner and the agent of the player. After 2008, GestiFute only received agent fees for the deals the company broke, and not actively in third parties ownership. However a portion of the million transfer deal (such as 5%) was already half of, or even exceeded, the annual salary of the player.
2003–2006 bought 20% of
Deco's economic rights from GestiFute for
€2.25 million. On 9 March 2003, GestiFute announced that they represent
Benfica's
midfielder Tiago, who was previously represented by their rival company, Superfute. Approximately two months later, on 23 May, Tiago's teammate
Ricardo Rocha traveled the same path, making a surprising move to GestiFute. During the summer of that year, on 29 July,
Porto bought 20% of
Deco's economic rights from GestiFute for
€2.25 million, plus 5% of
Paulo Ferreira and
Ricardo Carvalho's economic rights, this price being higher than presumed because the Portuguese team refused a €15 million offer from
Barcelona. On 4 April, the same team bought more 15% of Deco's economic rights for €1.25 million, plus 10% of striker
Benni McCarthy's rights. After acquiring 35% rights, however, Porto still owned 85% rights before he was sold. In 2004, some players represented by GestiFute were transferred for record prices, the first being Porto
defender Paulo Ferreira, who joined
Chelsea in a €20 million deal on 22 June. One month later, on 27 July, Ferreira's teammate Ricardo Carvalho also made a move to Chelsea, for a fee of €30 million. Deco was also later bought by Barcelona, but for less than Ferreira and Carvalho — Barcelona agreed on a €15 million fee in cash, in addition to the full rights of winger
Ricardo Quaresma, who was valued at €6 million. In 2005, on 14 June, GestiFute acquired a reported 70% of midfielder
Anderson's economic rights for €5.5 million. Anderson, who was playing for
Grêmio at the time, signed for the company after it was determined he would not feature for Grêmio again. Some days later, on 21 June, Porto bought Anderson, with GestiFute retaining a reported 20% of the Brazilian's rights with the club retaining 65% economic rights. Later that year, on 9 December, Tunisian midfielder
Selim Benachour of
Vitória de Guimarães also signed for GestiFute. On 1 December 2006, 18-year-old midfielder
Fábio Coentrão joined GestiFute.
2007–2010 In 2007, GestiFute's
Jorge Mendes was responsible for the transfers of
Pepe, who joined
Real Madrid from Porto for €30 million;
Simão, who was transferred from Benfica to
Atlético Madrid for €20 million; and
Nani, who moved to
Manchester United from
Sporting CP after he dropped his previous agent, Ana Almeida. Also in that year, Anderson also moved to Manchester United in a €30 million deal, with previous club Porto paying Mendes a reported €3 million for his share of Anderson's registration. Then-United manager
Sir Alex Ferguson admitted that he had not seen Bébé play. Gestifute apparently received 30% of the transfer fee for their part ownership of the player's economic rights. Vitória's directors reported that Mendes had received €3.6 million of the €9 million fee from the deal, with reports in Portugal suggesting that €2.7 million of that sum came from the 30% of the player's economic rights initially retained by Bébé but bought from the player by Mendes for €100,000. In the summer of 2008, GestiFute also signed 15% economic rights of
Pelé, as the latter was the piece-weigh of
Internazionale to sign Ricardo Quaresma. Quaresma himself joined Inter for €18.6 million plus Pelé, was also represented by GestiFute. In June 2009, GestiFute signed
Alexis Quintulen's 35% rights and
Ignacio Ameli's 50% rights for €473,000. In the same season Bébé left Portugal, GestiFute also broke the deal of
Ángel Di María to Real Madrid for €25 million plus a €11 million bonus. Two year before, GestiFute purchased 33% of the player's economic rights from Benfica for €800 million, which Benfica the remain 70% earlier in August for €1 billion.
2011– In August 2011, Porto sold striker
Radamel Falcao for €40 million to Atlético Madrid. GestiFute and Orel B.V. received a total of €3.705 million agent fee (unknown ratio between the two company). GestiFute later (or before the deal) became the agent of the player. That season, GestiFute also represented Benfica's Fábio Coentrão in his €30 million deal to Real Madrid. ==Clients==
