I think this is a bug:
In other news, the player's union has announced that players will no longer be subjected to automatic retirement when their managers fire them. Instead, players will now take their talents to the transfer market where their initial starting price will be ten times their salaries, with the maximum possible listing price for all players being $1,000,000

True. The player price in question was updated and code modified to prevent that in the future.

When several of those players retire, those big men TL prices might go up. That's good for trainers.

I just want to remind you that advertising transfer listed players is not allowed on the public forums!

Does that include retired players?

I always wondered about that, considering no manager in the game directly benefits from the sale (apart from NT/U21 players).

1M seems quite arbitrary. Why not make it dynamic to reflect the economy? Like, for example, 1.5x the average selling price of similar players.

Eventually (not true now) we should be able to sell any player on our roster for about 8times his base salary (for players under 100k salary) and that is a good think I think. Right now some players will only sell for about 3 times their base salary.

If he's a good player with 25k salary, I might pay 200k for him if he's 25, but if he's 45 he's not even worth 5k IMHO. It all depends.
