This seems like the right thread for this. I do not have much experience with the European Football leagues and am not sure how you all handle this. My question is, when is the best time to sell an elite player who has definitely outgrown your team but you don't want to lose him for nothing? The year before the final year of his contract? At mid point of his final year?
I am so scared that I am about to lose what will easily be the most lucrative player I have ever had for a free. I am almost to the midpoint of his final year on his contract. I have one more open window at mid season that I can try but will it even work?
hey bud,
who are you managing and who is it?
is he refusing to sign a new contract with you? if you wait until the mid season transfer window and try and "sell" him all the clubs who would be interested would just offer him a contract to leave on Bosman!
You need to start selling him now and agree a price before his last 6 months and try see if they will let the transfer go through at the end of the season rather than halfway
