[Signing NewGen players at other clubs]

18 minutes ago, Fire said:

But it's not uncommon. Vinicious Junior signed for R. Madrid before being 18yo and the same for Hugo Cuenca to Milan, for example.

Also apparently applies to transfer that would happen in January  so only a few months apart (less than a year anyway)  or with player that are already 17 years old. 

If you have examples of no interest with less than a year where you would expect the player's to be interested please upload a save and we can review.

Thanks,

Hi @SitDownCrew

What was the name of the saved game?

[Youth Intake player refuses to sign with me]

I can upload a save from the exact day I tried to offer the contracts to them, and up to 3 weeks before, but not from before the youth intake came through. Is that alright?

Both would be great please.

In fact this is happening to every single player from my intake.

Are you able to upload a save showing the issue? Ideally from just before this occurs.

[Why do assignments like this not return a single player?]

13 hours ago, tomi6 said:

unless Im blind, there doesn't seem to be an option for length of an assignment. If you mean select ongoing that reduces the amount of players I get recommended according to the game.

The 'Ongoing' priority should cover this. It doesn't impact the amount of players recommended, but means the focus will take longer and continue to run, meaning players your scouts didn't find right away may be found a second or third time around. 

Thanks,
Dan

[Players expecting unrealistic wages when already on low wages]

54 minutes ago, dannyfc said:

Hi Dan - for clarity what is specifically impacted by the issue? Is it believed that requested wages are inflated across the board for non-league players, or just specific one-off incidents? 

I have a save underway in the national league so just want to sense check before progressing further. 

National league and below players wage demands were slightly inflated generally and is something we are reviewing to get the balance right.

Thanks,
Dan

[Players expecting unrealistic wages when already on low wages]

34 minutes ago, LewisRWalsh said:

There's definitely some kind of problem with what wages players expect (in England at least, haven't noticed it on a save in Indonesia) as even in the National League, players are asking for unrealistically high wages.

Offering Jordan Slew a new contract with Halifax results in him wanting an extra £2k a week (ridiculous considering he's on £700) and even trying to sign very low CA players like Jerome Binnom-Williams results in them asking for figures of around £1.5k a week.

That's a separate issue and one we are aware of.

Thanks,
Dan

[Squad Planner Report does not display players currently on Trial at the club]

5 hours ago, Warre10 said:

Hi! Amateur players are not displayed either, which is a bit annoying when playing in the lower leagues. Is this by design too?

Hi @Warre10

That one is not by design but is something we are aware of. You should still be able to manually add those players to the planner though.

Thanks,
Dan

[No players on multiple recruitment focus tasks]

I have the same problem. Playing as RB Leipzig, I want to scout AMR winger. Set it only to 2.5 stars in both CA and PA and age to 25. Top priority, 6 scouts, but the didn't find a single player.

Please raise in it's own thread with a save game showing the issue.

Thanks,

[Renewing Loans Breaks them]

On 25/02/2022 at 03:34, Achiress said:

This bug seems to still be an issue in my save even though in the winter update it claims to be fixed?

Hi @Achiress

Sorry for the confusion here. Players already out on loan with this issue will unfortunately not be resolved. Any newly extended loans in this update will work though.

If you find you still encounter this issue with new loan deals in this update please let us know.

Thanks,

[Champions League Eligibility Query]

Hi @duff33

I am fairly sure that is correct but if you upload a save we can always double check.
Liverpool had a similar issue in real life with Harvey Elliott
https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-champions-league-squad-elliott-21454373
"UEFA rules state that an of age player can be registered on ‘List B’ if he; “has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years since his 15th birthday by the time he is registered with UEFA, or a total of three consecutive years with a maximum of one loan period to a club from the same association for a period not longer than one year.”

Joining Liverpool from Fulham when 16 years old in July 2019, Elliott ’s season on loan at Blackburn Rovers last season means he has not enjoyed an uninterrupted two-year period at Anfield, though he will be eligible to be registered as a ‘List B’ player next season in line with UEFA rules."

Cheers,
Dan

[Bid meeting release clause not being accecpted]

On 13/12/2021 at 23:30, eG JoK3R x said:

Would the other save I've upoaded do? "Will Young - Newcastle pre deadlie day.fm" Its in the Jan, I dont believe I made a bid for him yet on that one

Unfortunately Sesko hadn't agreed a new contract with the release clause in that one. 

[Game not allowing me to select wage % for loan even though I can comfortably afford the addition]

Hi @warviv

Thanks for posting. This is because of the pending contracts you have already offered (Goldaniga, Taider & Nguette) which if confirmed will use up your wage budget. By cancelling the three ongoing deals, I was able to offer a loan percentage as expected.

Cheers,
Dan

[Can't Offer Contract to Interested Player]

25 minutes ago, Urbz said:

That makes sense and I understand why a player might not want to join. I guess the issue has more to do with the UI and how its presented to the player. Some players are just straight up not interested in joining so you get the red box when you try and negotiate. However in certain situations like this he acts like he is but he wont join no matter what contract you give him (star player, multiple promises). This could be very frustrating for less experienced players.

Hi @Urbz

If you have a specific example where "he wont join no matter what contract you give him (star player, multiple promises)" please can you upload the save (and let us know which players to use to reproduce it) ?
There should always a be a combination of promises that can see you progress in to contract negotiations if the agent has sufficient interest to enter talks in the first place.
Its worth mentioning that some promises can have a negative impact so simply adding in all the promises isn't a valid strategy!

Cheers,
Dan

[***KNOWN ISSUE*** Player Attribute Knowledge Resets After Trial Completes]

Thanks for posting @LastSon

This is an issue that is under review by the development team.

[Unable to negotiate with player who is "doubtful" about starting negotiations]

Hi @SidT07,

Looking at the video, the agent is prompting you to offer promises that will convince his client to enter talks.

Without a save I can't say for sure but likely wanting promises linked to future club objectives (winning the league), big pay rises, playing in preferred role and/or strengthening the squad. 

Thanks,
Dan
