Does anyone else have a problem with buying youth players from France? No matter what, I cannot seem to get them to sign on, they always sign with their original clubs. I tried first with Henri Saivet from Bordeaux, then another youth player from Bordeaux and a player from Auxerre, and they all accepted offers from their original clubs.

Attached though they may be to their home towns, don't you think they would relish the chance to play for Man Utd?

Just give Saivet a 10 m € per month contract, a average sign on fee... and he will join you!

I can attract him to Spus in the beggining of the game, to man Unt it will be easier!

Many youth players don't want to go to another country.

Players who have already agreed to sign a deal when they reach a certain age (i.e. a pre-contract agreement) won't sign a contract elsewhere until they reach whatever age they need to be.

All you can do is wait till they sign their professional contract and then bid.
