AlexJames Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 According to my Scouting page, I have approx £320/week to spare in player wages. I am attempting to sign a new player who will drastically improve my team. He is asking for £300/week as a Key Player. I have only one other Key Player at my club, who is on £300/week. However, currently my board is only allowing me to offer a max wage of £160/week for a Key Player, so I am unable to sign this guy. Why am I not able to offer the full amount of wages that I have available in the budget? Especially as I already have a player earning this much with the same squad status. Possibly related, but I've noticed the wage slider displayed on the Board page does not always align with the "wages allowed" amount displayed on the Scouting page. i.e. Scouting page will display £320 available wages, but the slider will say something like "currently spending £2100 of £2200 available per week on wages" - so only £100 under budget. Is this a bug? Should they align, or are other budgetary considerations taken into account between these two displayed values? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarrantino Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I had a similar problem, take a look at this solution Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJames Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Thanks for the response. Not sure the solution here applies to my situation, however, as my transfer budget is zero, so there is no option to even move the budget slider, or even request more wages from the Board. I will take a look in more detail at the problem when I next continue my save, maybe provide some more info. One additional question I have in the meantime - I currently have a player on a rolling month-to-month contract on $150/week. If I were to release him, I assume these wages would be added to my overall wage budget, but I would be interested to know if this would also increase the amount of wages I could offer a potential new signing - i.e. increase from the max $160/ week my board is allowing for a Key Player. I guess I could use some clarity on the wage mechanics here. Don't want to release a useful player for nothing, if it makes no difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarrantino Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Depends if the board decide to absorb it or not. They’re obviously worried about finances so not releasing the funds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I suspect that your board are concerned about the overall finances and want to keep things tight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJames Posted April 5, 2019 Author Share Posted April 5, 2019 No kidding. So no guarantees that if I make more wages available (selling/ releasing players) that the maximum wage allowed for a role (i.e Key Player) will increase? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarrantino Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 If you get transfer funds available and can move your slider then it will probably happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
