To have said

"The Spanish striker was dropped from the squad for last weekend's match at Everton, and this week his agent was reported in Italian media to have said that "things aren't going well" under new manager Bob Bradley." (BBC SPORT website.)

Is "his agent" a subject of the perfect infinitive "to have said" in the sentence above?
