Rival agents have again raised concerns about Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock’s son working for a football agency that has close links with Selhurst Park.

James Warnock acts as football consultant for Unique Sports Management run by Will Salthouse whose clients include Palace players Wilfried Zaha, on loan from Manchester United, and Damien Delaney — sent off against Chelsea last weekend.

Warnock Jnr was also the subject of the same conflict of interest issue when he worked for Hayden Evans’s HN Sports who did deals with Warnock when he was boss at QPR.



Salthouse said: ‘I was working with Palace long before Neil Warnock became manager and my close connections are with the chairman Steve Parish who negotiates the transfers rather than Neil. Obviously if there is any work between us and the Palace manager, James would not be involved in any way.’

Football managers with sons working as agents has been a controversial subject since the furore surrounding the Manchester United transfer business handled by Jason Ferguson.
