Transfer budget bug?

Started a save as unemployed and simulated until June 2017 when I took over Real Madrid. Now in July 2017 and only 19 milion euros are available for transfers. Europe's big clubs are buying and when I tried to take over another club to see if they have money (Man City) they only have 12 mil.

FCC limitations most likely. Can't spend as freely as they have in the past. Also, if they didn't do great, their may have earned less prize money and that will restrict spending a bit too.

they won the La Liga and semi final in UCL. They are on the plus in FFP with 408 mil.

I think it's because your an inexperienced manager and they want you to prove they can trust you as a manager before opening the cheque book. 2nd season at a club they will usually loosen the purse strings a bit if you done well in the first season. Ffp is obviously important as well but I'm not sure the finer details of how it works. Hope this helps.
