In FM 22 if you fail a contract renewal because of agents unreasonable demands you would get stuck with a unsatisfied player because you fail to keep the promise of new contract. This year you can reengage in talks with the agent if fails, even more then one time. The problem is when you get agents with 0 patience and 0 background that only have 3rd rate players on is list(our player normally the only star player on is list), and he just won't negotiate game time and position, not even talking about salary....You cant even go to the player and say to sack the agent that is not doing a good job for him because there is no OPTION. How can we be stuck in a similar dilemma without the ability to speak with player about this, a player I train every day... Only option is to try to transfer the player out because I cant just negotiate with that Agent, and worst, the clubs don't wont to hire the player because of player demands, clearly he don't want to leave the club either but we get stuck in this issue. Got 2 young players like this, versatile young promises 21/22 years old, with very good growth potential, agent only accepts if I make contract with fix position>role and of course important player game time. I have 4.5star players as important players in the position so if i accept i will fail the agreement later... So no solution, I just feel like trying to get him out for free from the club so he don't affect team morale.
Please SI, try to make communication with players about contracts more natural, even if its a last resort.
