Contract Talks need more depth
If the last real life transfer windows have shown anything, it’s that:
- Football finances have spiralled into something of a beast
- FC is nowhere near close enough in terms of realism when looking at contract talks
Some suggestions that hopefully take on board , player side and manager side
Player Career
- Be able to agree terms with a club before going back to your current club hand in a transfer request
- More clauses and bonuses. Actually, just add bonuses in general because currently they are none. These can include goals, assists or clean sheets, appearances, table finishes, silverware, etc
- Go back to contract length in years instead of renegotiating every near depended on your first team appearances. To add a little more depth, the current objectives can be reworked to add the aforementioned bonuses instead of just being a checkbox.
- Endorsements contracts. Currently, the only way to have any sort of endorsements is through the activities tab which just doesn’t provide enough. Have companies like Nike or Adidas or drink companies or fashion companies approach you to sign with them for certain periods of time to wear their stuff.
Manager Career
- “Tapping up” players. There is no way in this current game to approach a player first without going through the club first. If EA could add a feature where you can negotiate terms with a player to bring their value down or guarantee the club can let the player go, it would be nice.
- Bonuses rework and Roles rework. Firstly on the roles, there needs to be more diversity/options with the current roles between Crucial and Prospect. A slider could be added to guarantee the minimum amount of games a potential signing will have to smooth over the negotiations or what types of competitions they are more likely to be starters in. Bonuses, like the player career suggestions, should also include table finishes, European qualification, silverware and sliders for appearances.
