Badass_ Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 This is a bit of a stupid question considering I've been playing the game for many seasons but Is there a way to sign them? Is there a way to go around the all " can't sign until they're 18" rule? I just saw this fantastic 15 year old guy and it ****es me off that I can't sign him because I know he's not gonna develop nearly as much as he would if I was training him .

Nottingham Forest Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 You can sign them before on a pre contract basis but thats its. When they are under 18 but they dont join till they are 18. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Sometimes; if they have a second nationality which is EU (or maybe the same as where you're playing not sure which) as that will allow them to move freely from their home to your club without breaking the rules. Also I find that AI clubs are far better in FM10 at developing players as previously, I put in a bid for a 15yo RB from Palmeiras and got him, by the time he came to me 3 years later he was on the verge of the Brazil team, and rightly so.

Shaka Sangoma Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Do they have to be declared for the European nation for this to happen? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Do they have to be declared for the European nation for this to happen? No just have the 2nd nationality. It's to do with freedom of movement rules in the EU, i.e. any Eu citizen can move freely between any EU states and also within them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found a 14 year old Brazilian player with German nationally and it still says he will only come to my team when he's 17/18.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit more than what Brian said they will only move to the country of their second nationality whilst under 18. So in your example he can join a German club now but other clubs only when 18.

Not really I gave both reasons, but I wasn't sure which, as I thought I had a Bra/Port player come to me below the age of 18. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
