The latest Football League Agents' Fees Report has revealed that League clubs committed to paying more than £6.2m to agents during the first six months of the 2006/07 season - an increase of almost £1.8m on the amount spent in the same period last season.

Football League Chairman, Lord Mawhinney, said: "The League's new agents' regulations, introduced this summer, have helped bring greater levels of transparency and integrity to the transfer system.

"In making these changes, we fully understood that the culture of paying agents was deeply embedded and would take time to reverse. These figures underline that reality, with clubs spending, on average, more than £30,000 per day.
"However, change is in the air and the FA's new regulations on agents will also help to reinforce The Football League's message to its clubs."
The report reveals that clubs committed to pay agents in 24% (497) of the 2,034 player transactions that took place during the reporting period, collectively committing a sum of £6,214,969.

Championship clubs accounted for 88% (£5.5m) of this total, with League 1 and League 2 clubs accounting for 8% (£505k) and 4% (£220k) respectively.
Twenty-one clubs did not commit any money to agents and a further nine committed £5,000 or less.
