extend loan is not working

Thanks for taking the time to share this one with us. This one is with our QA team and they're looking into it further.
 

is there any plan to fix this in FM23?

Really hope I don't need to see the same bug in FM24.

Our QA team have investigated this and ultimately the function is to just offer the player to the club again on a loan. They can subsequently decide they don't have the interest in going ahead and that is what the news item reflects.

How do you determine those clubs don't have the interest to extend the loan?

The reality is we cannot extend loan for any single player except for some rare case that the loaning club comes to offer an extension.

Is your QA team able to provide a successful case? If not, then this function is broken.

 

Loans recurring from one season to the next are quite rare and many clubs may well look for a better value proposition the next season. I can only really share my own playing experience but my own 2 most common observations are clubs being interested when the player has performed well across their loan (above a 7.0 average rating) and the loan terms were pretty favourable to them. These are only anecdotal from playing though, rather than any behind the curtain style information.
