I'm currently in 2045 in my save and have problems with old club legends. When they are about 30 they are usually on 250-350k per week, their demands suddenly drop and they sign extensions for around 150-200k. By the time these contracts are expiring they are ~35 yo and I offer them extensions. Suddenly they demand star roles and 250-300k again., which doesn't make any sense in my opinion.
Here's my legendary RB who was on ~300k, then on 180k and at 35 years of age demanded 350k. Then he signed a pre-contract with Bayer for 82k:
Here are my current RW and GK
again, they used to be at 300k or so, then signed for less than 200k and now with 8 months left being 36 years old they demand... 350-425k..
And if I don't give in they will sign with some other team for 30% of that.
Is this a bug?
