AJ1 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Gunther Reikersdorfer is a 19 year old striker who is currently at Barcelona. He's a bit of a wonderkid, his stats are incredible and he was purchased for 2.5k from some Austrian team the previous season. However while Barcelona are paying Gunther £56,000 p/w they failed to take into account a very important part of his overall contract. ^ His stats are incredible. ^ Ooops, a £1.8m release fee clause All of this works out nicely for me as im about to steal him away from the mighty Barcelona.

La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 yes and no mate, he was signed for 2.5k so they would be very happy selling him on for 1.8 million, making 720X profit on fees. Not a bad deal for them or you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afced7 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Somehow I don't think so. 1.8 mil is small fry for a team like Barcelona. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 The money isn't important to a club like barcelona but keeping a player of his calibre would be. I can imagine them now being devastated lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afced7 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Well let's say he's equivalent in talent to Bojan. Would Barca sell Bojan for £1.8 million? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 ^ agreed. I understand Aussieant's point however when negotiating a contract for a wonderkid would you really leave a release clause of 1.8m especially when paying him £56,000 p/w Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 no they wouldnt. Im just saying i cant see the team being devistated by selling him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 They just launched a £22m bid for Vela lol they are devastated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Vela performs very well in FM10, he won european goldenboot 3 years in a row in mine. Its obviously a very low min fee, i can see the resoning behind it though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 you all seem to think we are loaded lol, we are not as 'rich' as everyone seems to think. Our anual financial review was not overly promising. Its managable but not as good as we thought it would be. Anyway, good signing mate, got yourself a bargain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 And that is...? setting a min fee 720 times what they paid for him, yes its low but the AI dont set huge min fees like most human managers do, its an in game calculation. EDIT: you may be missing my meaning. Im saying that the game is the one thats setting it, not barcelona, as this isnt really barca, its the game, i know your saying irl barca would have messed up, but its a game, by reasoning i mean the games reasoning, not why the club would do this irl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
either and or Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 A player of his quality going for a mere 1.8 mil is a joke, regardless of how much they paid for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afced7 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Fair enough, but if it the financial review wasn't that good, surely when you have a player that you could get AT LEAST £5mil for, you and everybody concerned with the club would be annoyed at letting him go for £1.8mil?

La Furia Roja Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 yes but again, this is the game and not real life, it doesnt take into account how the members feel. I am saying its too low, im just saying i can unserstand the AI setting that min fee. 9 times out of 10 the AI wont adjust the min fee, thats what the player asked for in his contract request so thats what they gave him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytfc2005 Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 damn thats a huge fail he only has to be at the club a few months paying his wages and they wouldnt make any profit at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troneas Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 marc muniesa who is an excellent defender at the age of 22/23 has a release clause of 4mil; and is worth like 20mil. someone is not doing the contracts right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FelixForte Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 This might be a stupid question, but how do you know when a new regen is created by the game?

boloslick Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 no-one seems concerned that an austrian club let him go for 2.5k in the first place!!! now thats poor managment, unless they have 50% of next sale and a whoooole lotta clauses Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggz Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 The other point to this is that the spanish clubs have their release clause set based on the purchase price don't they? It's some multiplier of it? In that case what they are guilty of is not renewing his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 This might be a stupid question, but how do you know when a new regen is created by the game?

Ryknow Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I have seen the same problem on my save. Real Madrid have a world class Brazilian newgen goalkeeper who is on £150,000pw yet his release clause is only £4.5mil, he justy signed a new contract and this did not change.

Barkermush Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I've noticed this in my save game now i'm about 10 years in, but i've not seen one that low yet. But there is a young lad at Barcelona who is very good and he has a minimum release clause of 12 million, and there is a world class player at Real Madrid who i have recently posted in another thread, who as eight 20's in his attributes and his valuation is £34 million, and he recently signed a new contract which as a minimum release clause of £52 million.

hejh0pp Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 In my Genoa save the best goalkeeper in the world plays for Real Madrid and he's CA is 198. His release clause is only 5.5 million euros, lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 There seems to be a lot of inconsistency when it comes to clubs setting the minimum fee release clauses. I dont know whether there is a break in the AI logic that determines what the minimum fee release clause should be, but then why does the Barkermush post show that Real Madrid have put in a minimum fee release of £52m which would seem reasonable for a player of that calibre. Just didn't make sense why barcelona only had a £1.8m release clause, still im not complaining as he has nearly recovered from a shoulder injury and i cant wait to get him in the first team.
