Likel team continues to grow – new expertise, athletes and leadership joining

We are happy to share that the Likel team has recently grown with two new managers, Onur Alakas and Vesa Elfvengren, joining our network. Along with them, four athletes have become part of Likel, while at the same time new athletes have also joined through our existing managers.

In addition, we are very excited to welcome Rasheka Scott to Likel as our new Partner and Head of Legal. Rasheka brings over 17 years of experience in commercial contracts, marketing and brand protection, combined with a strong understanding of the sports world through her own background as an athlete. Her approachable and athlete-focused way of working strengthens our ability to support athletes and managers in today’s evolving sports industry from partnership agreements to international opportunities and NIL related matters.

This phase of growth is especially meaningful for us. Onur brings an international and innovative approach to athlete development and partnerships, while Vesa adds strong people-focused leadership and a holistic understanding of athletes’ journeys. Together with Rasheka’s legal expertise and our current team, this strengthens our in-house expertise and ability to support athletes in a modern and comprehensive way.

For us, it is not just about growing the team, but about growing in the right direction. We are building a network where diverse expertise, shared values and long-term thinking come together to create better opportunities for athletes every single day.
