These transfers could still happen (EU to EU), based on a couple of users' feedback in this thread. The complaint seemed to be about South American 16yo players though?
The problem is entirely with newgens, and I can confirm that it is currently impossible to sign any EU newgen as an EU team, at least in the first year when they appear. In previous FMs, the top wonderkids in big clubs usually refuse to move, which makes sense because they are already at a big club, and the other crappy newgens at small clubs with one or two star PA would always jump at the chance if you tried to sign them as a big club. But even they turn you down now. I'm not sure why SI decided to go to such extremes just to prevent poaching this year. If Garnacho and Hannibal were newgens in this game and held european citizenship, you would not be able to sign them because something in the code prevents that. Examples shown in this thread were probably for 16 year olds that already exist in the game, those have no problem and are not affected.
I saw in the bug tracker that SI have acknowledged that there have been some changes this year regarding the newgens, which is fine. But I would like to know if it is intentional for every single newgen to be locked from transferring when they first show up, and for how long.

Ah yes, how often does it happen in real life where a player is bought and sold in 6 months? I'll wait
Thanks for playing sweetie

- Terrible transfer AI - not been fixed for years. I posted about in my save spurs bought DVB for 20m in Jan, selling him for 6m later for a loss.
Ah yes, clubs taking a punt on a player and selling for a loss never happens in real life.

I was gettng excited hearing about a update hotfix, i thought ''well done si for resolving a big bug'' only to find out they removed a manager, which you can already do yourself with a real time editor. I seriously thought people were trolling when they said it's about gerrard getting sacked
I think it was trolling, because they never released a hot fix like that before. Very well timed and humourous.

You should've been more explicit then. You said "midfielder".
The person I replied to did. I never said he couldn't be a DM, but the stats don't make him seem like an obvious midfielder like the guy said.

Literally none of those stats are important for a DM or CM that is defensive minded.
Nobody said anything about a defensive midfielder.

The question is ... why is he so limitedly developed ? AI tends to develop also some additional positional skills for those players who have a high PA. Why is it developed only as a central defender? Does he have an extremely low versatility ? Is that very low versatility the reason that almost all CA has been allocated to development of visible attributes ? That would be an exceptional case. Most players with a high PA also have at least a reasonable versatility. But here is another problem : if AI couldn't develop additional positional skills for this guy ... how come he has such balanced visible attributes ? For 6 years he was trained strictly as a central defender. How did he come to have a combination of atributes similar to that which characterizes a midfielder ?
I think his crossing, dribbling, finishing, flair and off the ball are too poor to be a midfielder. He looks like a proper ball playing defender as advertised, a modern day Baresi.

Personally I hope it comes just to annoy the sexist dinosaurs
It's not even that. Just from this thread it's pretty obvious that some are hyper sensitive when it comes to perceived sjw and virtue signaling. I wouldn't be surprised if these people are also annoyed that Mr Jacobsen is standing up for the protests on his twitter as well. To think that this feature is only now being considered because of social media likes and appeasement is just laughable. It's like they live in their own little bubble and are oblivious to the fact that the womens game has been growing exponentially in the last few years.

Perhaps you didnt read everything I wrote, its not just me who doesnt care, look at the numbers, attendances, TV viewership, sponsorship figures, etc etc etc.
And, again to emphasyze that point, IF they really to have a proper crack at the womens game, they just cannot build a new database. The nature of the game itself played by females is just different, and this takes alot of time, energy and resources.
To be fair, you only wrote three sentences of random, baseless nonsense. Not very easy to miss. I guess we should be glad that you aren't in charge of developing the game.

I hope in the new game the AI doesn't sack their manager too easily and too often. Just started a new save and Klopp got sacked for finishing 3rd.

I am considering Hazard as a potential option for the AMR problem. How long do you think it will take for him to retrain to the right? My scouts reckon 98M -138M which is expensive but we have money. I want a player that good. We need some extra spark in the attack.
Bought him for 84M in my last save, he was unhappy and that was his list price. Good player but not the world beater that everyone might expect, or maybe it was my tactics but i did try him in his natural IF position. He chips in with both goals and assists and is reasonably consistent.

Stuck my nose in before, hope you Devils don't mind a Toffee asking a question. Have any of you developed Callum Gribbon, if so does he do well. He looks good in my game and wondered if he was worth a punt?
I developed him last year, useful player, his ambitious personality means he will train hard and improve his stats to become better. Chips in with free kick goals and assists here and there, not consistent enough to be a top player and iirc eventually i replace him after about 4-5 seasons, although he never complains and I think i even had him on a month-to-month for awhile after his contract expired. Eventually replaced by the regens pushing through. This year I didn't develop him on my first save because Gomes and Pereira are ahead of him and are also versatile enough to play on the flanks as well as the middle. But i started a new save where I will only sign u18 and try to use academy talent so will try to develop him to replace Mata. tl;dr - Good technical ability and ambitious personality makes him a useful and better player than his stats suggest.

Think ill have to start a new save soon, there's hardly any challenge in this one anymore. I'm only on the second season by boxing day and Andreas Pereira is the league's top scorer with 8 goals. Last season Martial ran away with it, with Rondon at second with like ten goals apart, this year the big clubs like Liverpool and City are hoving outside the europa places. Wolves is 3rd and Newcastle 2nd with Rafa doing a great job, signed Balotelli on a free on the second season and he's killing it with 8 goals 7 assists so far. They also signed Barkley in the last winter window (had the first summer disabled) and he's also chipped in 7 goals and the magpies are back on top. I dont want to be a part of this world.

Too easy? Well I'm the complete reverse. I think its too hard and Man Utd are hopeless. On 28th January I got sacked. I tried to play more like vintage Fergie with wingers but ended up for some reason playing like Mourinho irl and only finished 8th. I signed Kostas Manolas thinking he would be a much better defender than what I have but only managed 8th before getting the boot. I will restart and try and figure out what I did wrong.
I also found it pretty easy with stock squads and first transfer window disabled, 6 pts clear by new years right now. Stick with the 442, wing play is very strong again this year. I put Pereira at left wing and he's got 2 goals 8 assists in 13 appearances. I'm off loading a third of my squad in the jan window before their contracts expire, as this years United is pretty interesting in that nearly half the teams contracts are expiring. So lets see what happens as I ease Gomes, Chong, and Ro-Shaun into the first team for the second half of the season to replace Jones, Smalling, Fellaini, Herrera, and probably Lingard (60m to Arsenal!).

So I was tracking the progress of one of my regens, everything seems to be going well, stats steadily improving and he's enjoying his time
Then I look at his profile

I get that they tried to mirror fickle fans on social media in real life, but this is ridiculous

He suffered a bad injury in preseason and underwent surgery. Probably the researcher did not have enough info at the time the data was locked.
