I had no idea how to name this thread in the title.


When you buy a player, if you would like to sell him right away, you will only get 79% of the money paid.

When you have had a player for all of his career, you will get 97% if you sell him.

When you first buy the player and it is 79%, I think it takes way too long to go up to 97% for example. I understand that you do not want to encourage daytime trading but do we really need to wait for 3 months to sell our player?

I bought two 18 year old superstars to train and sell them later but I have to wait until the end of the season or maybe even longer because their % is at 89 and 83.

I am pretty sure this part of player transfers functions as intended.

If you buy 18year old superstar, you do it to train these players for more than a season,if you want to train a player and sell it in a season you can buy players with starter/star potential at much more lower price

Yes.

That's roughly one full season, and most players do not change teams more than once a season in the NBA, for example.

Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

i have no problem to sell a player after 3-4 weeks, because the taxes are reducing pretty fast in the first weeks and when you get a good deal you still get enough money out of it.
