How to Sell Players in FM 23?
- Click on the player you wish to transfer and list them for transfer. Wait for their reactions.
- Wait for clubs to bid for the player.
- Initial bids are usually lower than the players’ market value, so you may have to bargain a bit before selling the player.
- If no club bids, you can offer the player to a club.
- The player may have some objections that he will raise through his agent, so keep an eye out for that.
- You may need to discuss this with the player, but explaining that you want to raise some funds and will not necessarily sell them should immediately alleviate the player’s mood.
- When the bids come in, you will be able to negotiate.
- In addition to the base fee for the player, you can include performance-based bonuses and sell-on fees to include the overall transfer fee without putting the buying club in a tough spot.
- Negotiate carefully. If your negotiating tactics are too intense, clubs can pull out of negotiations.
- A player may also reject the move if you did not have a proper discussion with them beforehand.
- After you make the sale, the club will allocate a predetermined amount to your transfer budget.
Just like in real life, in-game players have egos, and as manager, your job is to manage them delicately.
