Dr. Erkut Sögüt - reflects on his journey, from the immigrant neighborhoods of Hannover to the top of world football. He is a lawyer, teacher, agent, language student and aspiring novel writer. He has three Master’s degree’s and a PHD…at age 40.

We talk about his quest to become a Harvard professor, how teaching is the foundation to everything he does, how that led to him becoming Mesut Özil’s agent. We also talk about racism, media bias, propaganda, and pressure, Mesut’s retirement from the German national team, and, that photo with President Erdogan.
