I've started as Brentford (league 1) and have managed to get season loans for Kristán Adorján, Dean Perrett, Harry Kane, Vitinho (6months) and a DL/WBL but cant remember his name! Adorján & Vitinho are quality

However i am not able to offer any contracts to free transfers or other coaches/scouts

The contract screen cant be adjusted, just gives me the option to 'walk away' at the bottom!?? I have moved all my transfer budget to wages and have 3.5k wage budget remaining. It seems other teams in my league are able to sign these free transfers (within my wage budget also) and from reading this thread, you guys in lower leagues are able to sign decent players that i couldn't i.e. Fabien Brandy!!??
Any insight as to why i am having issues offering contracts would be much appreciated!
Any suggestions?
