Episode #017: Manuel Veth is Transfermarkt's USA Area Manager and joins us to discuss player values, the global market, and how clubs, players, and scouts use one of football's biggest databases to inform, improve, and influence the world of football.

Manuel speaks about:
- Transfermarkt's reputation and reliability
- His background and role as USA Area Manager
- And how Liga FUTVE could improve its players' transfer values

Manuel has a PhD in History from Kings College London. His dissertation was titled 'Selling the People's Game: Football's transition from Communism to Capitalism in the Soviet Union and its Successor State'. In his own words, this led to him falling into journalism. As well as his role with transfermarkt, Manuel is the owner of @FutbolgradLive and covers the Bundesliga for Forbes.
