Or maybe they do acknowledge this, but see them going straight back down again. So why should they be interested? Can't remember so many players being interested in signing for Derby in the summer.

Its a mechanical thing.
The team has clinched promotion. However, they don't get the "reputation" boost until the official end-of-season date. Also, contract offers are still considered with the old league reputation, not the league rep of the league you're promoting into.
In FM'05, I once saw a player leave my club, which had clinched promotion from the Championship, to move to a club which was clearly relegation-bound from the Premiership. (I can't remember now if they were 'locked' in or not; I know I was locked for promotion.)
The player's explanation? "He wanted to play at a higher level."
Um, son? You're gonna be a
level below me next year, thanks to this decision.
