I’m 50/50 on a player at the moment.

If I don’t respond before the final deadline I’ll go for Seimen.

But I might change pending a bit of research.

I assume I missed out. How would this work anyway as I can't buy players.

 

[Damien]

I assume I missed out. How would this work anyway as I can't buy players.

There's a workaround which isn't great - takes three months and involves part exchanging:

The workaround isn't great but it is the only way around the transfer limitations that I've found.

Basically, let's say you're interested in Alban Lafont from QPR (£7M). You say you would like them, then an existing Gold manager like myself signs them for cash then when their transfer ban expires I part exchange with an existing player at your club of similar value of your choosing, so you get the player after three months but you lose one too.

I guess it is probably best used for if there's a good youth player available and you have one at your club that isn't doing so well, so you lose the 'flop' and gain a decent one.

None of the non-Golds have opted for that yet, but I think when the Darlington draft starts there'll be a few players that could tempt some to use the workaround.

The caf firewall won't let me update the original post order, but Forest's value at the time was £449.9M so you're between Southend and Newcastle.
