Manager career unable to sign players on pre contract

Reported by others before, but ignored, not fixed.

Even when players are eligible for pre contract discussions - it says "We can approach this player directly...", it is not possible to enter negotiations as all that shows on the menu is to buy or loan as usual.

It is NOT to do with the age of the player being too young, it is happening with every single player in the list who would normally be eligible to negotiate pre contract agreement 6 months before end of contract.

 

In some cases it is possible to sim, e.g. to January 2nd or after and that can fix the issue but it doesn't always work.

    Keep the error and any correction in the new updates, a simple problem for a old game and versions. EA FC is getting worse? Expensive and don't give simple function already existents

  • I have the same issue and I this situation inadmissible by EA. We're in May, the game was launched in September last year - it's far from being cheap - and still, after so many updates, still, after so many complaints about this bug, EA still doesn't do a thing.

    Wanna know why, mate? Because career mode isn't profitable.
    EA is only interested in FUT where kids spend money to buy coins and better card players.
    That's all they care about. Career mode doesn't give them more profit, so it simply doesn't matter.


    And there's also another problem inside this very issue: even though when you can approach a player, let's say January 1st, all the best players have already renewed apparently?
    But if EA is reading this, here's a reality check for you guys: not every player renews, did you know?

    If you need a reality check, a wake up call, I can offer you a few examples:
    Trent Alexander-Arnold is moving to Real Madrid as a free agent.
    Kevin de Bruyne isn't renewing for Manchester City.
    Zepiqueno Redmond is leaving Feyenoord as a free agent.
    Olivier Boscagli is joining Brighton as a free agent.

    But there are plenty, plenty more. The problem is, I'll say it again: EA is only interested in FUT where kids spend money to buy coins and better card players.

    I'm a football journalist (I know you guys are based in the USA where you decided to call it soccer and all that), so I can reassure you the way things are going on EA FC 25 are far from correct (not to mention the continue absence of the Brazilian League Italian clubs that you guys are fail to get licenses like Atalanta, Inter, AC Milan). At least give us an option to edit the club's name and kits.

    Oh, but I forgot. EA is only interested in FUT where kids spend money to buy coins and better card players.

    I've been playing FIFA since its first version, back in 1994, I'm 45 years old, and your behavior about this bug, when you demand 79,99€ for your game, when EA FC 24 still costs 79,99€ at Playstation Store, is embarrassing.
    You should feel ashamed. So far - and yes, the football season in reality is almost over in Europe -, your behavior has been nothing but indifference and negligence.
    😠😠😠😠😠

  • You wrote down the bug going on six months ago and not a single reply from EA.
    That's the level of respect they have for their customers.
    Enough said.

  • EA only care about FUT because us career mode players don't make them money
