Ragin Cajun Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Is there any way to sign a youth player from another team to a youth contract for your team? I'm seeing 15 year olds that are on an $8 or $15 pw contract (typical youth deal) that when I want to acquire them they want $1000 pw or more.

Ryknow Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The player has likely came through the youth system with the U12, etc, so generally wouldn't want to locate to a new place for the same amount. He's asking for that amount because him, and probably his parents, would need to relocate. Doubt they would even consider it for $300 pw. That's the way I always view it. Note a player won't get that $1k pw, until he's of age to sign a professional contract. So for instance I approach a 15 year old player as a German club, then the $1k pw doesn't kick in until he's 17. Finally, to avoid paying too much try including clauses. I often include 'Wages after 30 league appearances' for youth players. I know the majority won't ever make 30 league appearances at the club so I can keep their weekly wage down.
