AZBruntsfield Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I got this mad offer tonight to buy out my 20% future profit clause on a world-class defender I sold for £46.5 million. Real Madrid clearly have too much money... For that bid to make financial sense, Real Madrid would have to sell him for more than £204.5 million.

AZBruntsfield Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 Early 2020's. His £46.5 million fee is the leading transfer fee by an AI club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
achilles-the-victorious Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Its only 20% of the profit from the next deal, not even 20% of the next deal! You were smart to take them up on it, but whoever offered it should be canned Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyt86 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 has anyone been able to buy out a clause?? I have had it several times where I have been told there is the option to buy a certain clause but not found out how I can actually do this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmyt86 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 club > transfers > clauses Should it show up somewhere whether I can buy out any of the clauses or not? If so, where? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjericho Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 The future transfer clause is one of the best things you can do in FM. It gets you crazy money when you least expect it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarian Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Should it show up somewhere whether I can buy out any of the clauses or not? If so, where? There is a tiny little symbol (I triangle I think, I haven't got any available to sell right now) in front of the clauses that are available to sell. Highlight the clause and at the bottom right there should be a button to sell the clause. As for Real Madrid they probably have almost a billion pounds in the bank by 2020 a £5m wage budget and £500m+ transfer budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZBruntsfield Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 Still amazed by this, so I had a wee look at Real's finances. They have £338 million transfer budget, over £400 million in the bank, £4 million wage budget (of which they use half). So buying out his clause is almost pocket change for them, but still has to be a bug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
