A little clarification - if a player wouldn't have been interested, they don't enter contract negotiations but an interested player will.

Title: Transfer offer with specific set of conditions will always be accepted Summary: After seeing it on Twitter (X) - and kudos to @fmdirektor for finding it, I tested it out on - Football Manager 2024 Console - on PC - bought outright via Microsoft Store - Playing as Celtic, in 4th season And found the exact same result. I also tried with Jude Bellingham I've uploaded my save game to OwnCloud as FMConsole2024_TransferClauseBug.fmt Steps to reproduce Navigate to any player profile Go to Transfer -> Transfer Offer Offer £0 Fee Additional Fees and Clauses Instalments (6 monthly) of £1.2k After League Appearances: 50 Games for £2.5m Percentage of Profit from Next Sale: 50% Press "Make Offer" or "Suggest Terms" I wasn't able to offer 50% Percentage of Next Sale. The selling club will always accept. Expected Result If the offer is less than the market value, a rejection by the selling club.

A general, cross-version question.... I've tracked every item on the Finance screen (all income, all expentidure) over 37 seasons across FM 2020- FM2023. Limitations of the analysis is it's always with Celtic and always using the Console/Touch version on PC. What I've found is that, unless the team has *considerable* sponsorship deals, the amount that can be spent on Player Wages, Staff Wages, Bonuses and Transfers is a direct correlation to Season Tickets, Gate Receipts, Prize Money and Transfer Income. Given Season Tickets and Gate Receipts can't change a huge amount (save longer runs in Europe), that income is largely what can be spent on wages. So as a rule of thumb my transfer budget ~ my transfer income. My wage budget is usually around £700k-£900k (rises because I start to get higher Prize Money as I progress in Europe). However taking a recent example Transfer Budget: £104m (start of season) Wage Budget: £1.8m p/w (start of season) That season, I made £73m profit, of which £55m was net transfer income. If I imagine I spent all of the transfer income, profit is now just £18m (£73m - £55m). So if I spent £104m (the initial budget) then I'd have made a loss of £18m-£104m = -£86m Taking wages into account, I was on £1.2m vs £1,8m at end of season. That would've been another £31.2m (£600k x 52weeks) loss on top of the £86m meaning it could have been a total loss of £117m. I don't recall cash in bank at time, but I think I would've been close to the red. So how does FM calculate the budgets? Does it alllow spending of cash reserves? Does it allow debt to be accumulated? At the moment, I can't see any sound basis for the budgets, they just look made-up.

No problem - I'm glad I can help

I'm sorry I don't know - I play on PC with the game bought outright from the Windows store. In windows it is in C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023 Console\graphics

I don't believe tactics, shortlists, filters nor views can be uploaded. Graphics can be put in your Football Manager 2023 Console user directory as per the main game. I would suggest an import feature is one that needs to be added. FM Console players miss it out on community produced artefacts, and even stuff we created for previous games (e.g., filters, tactics, shortlists).

I'm sure GrimX knows better, however the best examples to support the view that Rocco Vata plays as a winger (primarily) is on the Celtic FC website: https://www.celticfc.com/players/celtic-b/Rocco-Vata Based on a few Celtic B team match reports, its probably right wing he plays most, example: https://www.celticfc.com/news/2022/october/11/young-celts-lose-out-in-uefa-youth-league-home-tie/
