ashley7 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 has anyone else had the problem if finding players that were released on a free and then refuse to sign with you and then at the age of 24 retire. it annoys me that even if i offer a one year contract or have a tiny minimum release clause they wont come. im not talking about an outrageous signing but say players that are of a championship level not signing for a league one team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoluteGenius Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Maybe they are playing other sports instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine_iron Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Gone on to rugby? golf? basketball? many other sports to try! Maybe they just missed out on their calling by quitting too soon. All their fault, not yours or the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJJOEYT Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 its if they cannot find a club. it happens in real life , therefor is a good feature Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley7 Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 no i know that. but surely a player would maybe step down a level in order to continue playing for a bit and with a deal that allows them to move to a bigger team at the end of the year or for a small fee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoluteGenius Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Yeah, but they might have a better deal playing another sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJJOEYT Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 they just give up , being a free agent for too long. they may do , but you wont be able to see them. they will go on to play for very smaller teams like fleetwood ect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nani17legend Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 i had Kerlon and Andy Carroll retire at young ages and i couldn't sign them because i was with a poor club very annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquez Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I don't think the likes of Ronaldo or Adriano would sign for a League 2 club when their future was not at balance (excluding Notts County ofc). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
