Teams who pay a % of a players wage so he can leave?

Hi,

Example; i was managing Wolfsburg in Germany and one of my players (Grafite) was on Mega ££ more then he was worth in my opinion, so i transfer listed

him. Anyway a team came in to buy him, I forget who but he wanted more wages then they could pay, so he comes to me saying i should give him a % of his wages to make up the difference.

Ok probs pretty common but what i was wondering is when i try to sign a player and can't afford his wages why that player doesn't go to his manager and try get the difference?

maybe he does however and you just don't hear about it and the other team just says NO!! lol just wondering what your thoughts were on this ??

Thanks.

I have always wondered if this works both ways. I quite often get asked to pay wages for a player I am selling to a smaller club, but have never seen it happen the other way around.
