If rumours are correct then double major winning  Rory McIlroy could be soon signing with Team8, the sports agency set up by Roger Federer’s agent Tony Godsick.

McIlroy officially quit the Dublin-based Horizon Sports Management in October to set up Rory McIlroy Incorporated.

And while he has stated a desire to manage his own business affairs, McIlroy is close to Federer due to his relationship with Caroline Wozniacki.

Federer and Godsick were with IMG until 2012 but are now seeking to expand the operation.

Already they have signed Juan Martin del Potro, the current tennis world No. 5,  and it’s understood they have been talking with McIlroy.

Rumours ripe Rory McIlroy will be managed in 2014 by Team8.
