stevo21 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 When a player has a"big club release" in his contract. What does it take to activate it as a lot of my signings will only put pen to paper if it's in his contract bearing in mind that they are already improving their status by joining my league 1 club(as I often have to buy from non league due to lack of funds) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Jack Joyce Posted April 22, 2016 SI Staff Share Posted April 22, 2016 The big club release clause will only be activated if the club are offering a fair amount more than what you paid for them. This can vary, but from my experience you will get a fairly good return on your money and won't get ripped off too badly! As a couple of examples, two of my players that I brought up from league 1 to the championship were bought for 400-600k each, when I signed them for <100k.

stevo21 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 My player who I bought for £325k is now worth £1.8m so would I at least get his market value? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevo21 Posted April 24, 2016 Author Share Posted April 24, 2016 Sunderland came in for my player and I had to accept their bid of £2.5m but at least I can afford to considerably strengthen my team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Jack Joyce Posted April 25, 2016 SI Staff Share Posted April 25, 2016 You should get roughly market value, £2.5m sounds pretty good! If you do have any examples in the future where an unfairly low bid activates the clause, then please do let us know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
