High Agent Fee for Jack Rodwell? WTF??

[deverdinho]

I'm being bullied into offering Jack Rodwell £140.000 a week hes only 20 and hes just been earning around 30k a week at Everton. I'm already paying a £18 million price tag for him

His agent is demanding a £5.7 million signing on fee and a Agent fee of £4.5 million

I cant do anything to change it, everytime I change it, his ******* agent Jonathan Currie keeps putting it back to wages like I'm signing Messi or something!

This is ridiclous - why should I dish out hefty fees?? any way to make him lower it? I've tried nearly everything to get him to agree £90.000 a week but even then I think thats too much to offer at a early age of 20...imagine in 4 years, be asking for £260.000 a week!!

Who are you? What's your position in the league/what year are you in etc etc.

 

[Puddz]

Are you Man City by any chance?
It appears if you have players that are earning high amounts like at Man City, players coming in think they'll get high wages aswell.

 

[Deovoultcha]

He's Sunderland and he's top of the table

 

[Jak]

You could try signing someone is is similar in ability and won't demand such huge fees. Or young players that have the potential to be as good as him

 

[KidSparxx]

Negotiate. You can probably get it down to about 80k ?

Buy someone else lol

 

[haap]

What are his agent stats?

 

[deverdinho]

LOOK AT WHAT IM DEALING WITH?? LOL!! this is a compete joke! £14 million signing on fee?!!

 

[Deovoultcha]

bring him down to a first team player and maybe the money asked for will also go down, it worked for me with Terry Almalcat

 

[Bowen91]

Take the highest earner clause out and lower his wage?

 

[ollieconnolly]

Lolololololololololololol

 

[Fonzie]

Oh wow... 14 million? He sure is greedy.

 

[deverdinho]

When I remove him from Key Player to first team. I click to offer and it brings it back to £100k+ a week wages and still demanding £5 mil signing on and £5 mil agent fee.

I thought Man City players were greedy, these lot are acting like I'm signing Messi. I actually would rather try sign Messi...even though I know I cant, but I'd rather keep it and try my luck lol

OK - Just to add - anybody know anybody good that is like Jack Rodwell? I cant obviously afford to spend nearly all my budget on 1 player incase I get a bad injury. This **** agent has ****** me off!

Need a good ball player to play in the midfield who can take control of matches

 

[Alex]

Sod that, play Huddlestone there and buy Pastore/Henrique.

 

[mrjack41]

I'm sorry but LOL, just have to buy someone else

 

[Mason*]

Play Huddlestone their he's still a top talent

 

[JD_2020]

Your best option might be to just give up on this gold digger.
