Contract Negotiations

I’m 11 years into my save, and I’m nearing the end of my second contract with my current club. I usually don’t pay attention to my own salary, since this is, after all, pretending. But when the offer came several (game) weeks ago, it was for an increase from 33,000 p/w to 34,000. When I tried to negotiate, the very highest they’d go was 35,500. This after multiple league titles and  Champions League wins. I walked away.

Since then, they have come back to me several times, each time with the same opening offer and the same result. Recently, there have been news stories about how they’re worried about losing me but are looking into possible replacements. And the three names mentioned are all making 6 to 8 times what they’re offering me! But when the next offer came, it was the same as before. I think this is an aspect of the game that needs improvement (much like the team that repeatedly makes the same non-negotiable offer for the same player).

that really bugs me too, and when they ask you 4 times the price then the player goes to the AI for a fraction of the cost.

Either ignore it and accept the offer or look for a new club. This part of the game is a gimmick IMHO.
