[[Spain] (Official) League Specific Issues]

I've tried posting about this in the contract & transfers forum, but got no response, so I'll try here too as it seems to be a Spain specific issue. I noticed it with my main Eibar save and have done a couple of test saves using other LaLiga clubs too (Athletic and Levante)

The LaLiga minimum salary requirements (3000 Euros p/w) for full time players also seem to apply to B teams regardless of what division they are in. It also applies to youth team players, which makes signing youth intakes prohibitively expensive for smaller LaLiga clubs. Where I've really noticed this issue is with my main Eibar save, as signing a 10 player youth intake to full time deals will cost about 10% of my wage budget (And building out a B team would cost about 25%). Not signing them to full time deals means that other clubs can just poach them at will, even if you sign them to youth deals. I guess it forces you to choose which prospects to keep, but it does seem like it will ruin game balance after a couple of years.

I have tried assigning contract renewals to both my B team manager and DoF but they still have to abide by these restrictions. Most of the players at B teams when the game starts are below the threshold - Athletic Club B has 19 players of which 15 earn less than 3000 Euros p/w, and 11 less than 1500 Euros p/w (Segunda minimum). Is this working as intended, as it clearly doesn't mirror the real world restrictions?

I'm having this same problem in a save with Deportivo La coruna. 

Even checked the lower limits for wages in the finances section and for some reason that's not accurate either - it says the minimum wage for future prospects is £2,900, though it's actually £2,700 (which seems to be the case regardless of squad status). 

This is clearly ridiculous and puts a massive burden on smaller clubs as some of my first-team players are on only a little more than £3,000 - PLEASE FIX THIS!

[Matchday squad submitted but stuck as I can't give YTH players squad numbers]

I've already submitted my squad for a match, with two youth players on the bench. Both have the "U19" box next to their names so shouldn't have to be registered in the squad to play. When I go through to play the game, it asks to select squad numbers for the two youth players - ordinarily these would be outside the 1-22 numbers for first-team players, but it highlights only three first-team players from the dropdowns.

When I try to replace the numbers of those players highlighted, it doesn't do anything. I literally can't select a number for the two youth players in the squad - only way out of it is to go on holiday. 

I've uploaded my save to the cloud - file name: 'David Brent - Coruña.fm'
