Probs been asked a million times but the search function is useless.

How do you loan players on the latest patch?

I played FM 09 when i first got it and it was fine but now ive started playing agan with the latest patch and im finding it impossible to loan players. When i make a loan offer for a player the club always comes back demanding a fee of around 500k-1m, even for youngsters. What am I doing wrong? or is it now impossible to loan players without paying, realistic indeed.

It is realistic for not parent clubs to ask for a fee actually, it depends mostly on the team. However unfortunatly i dont play 09 so i cant help.

Most loans in real life have some sort of fee. Although I agree that the fees are too high in FM09 9.3.0, it is perfectly realistic that clubs want some money for their players' services.

If the team are looking for an up-front fee you are either a rival, or they are looking into the possibility of offloading the player. If it is the latter put in a future fee for the rest of his value and they will almost always accept. That way you will get a player with good potential on the cheap.
