I have a question, I usually sell my young players with the minimum buy back price allowed and a sell on clause in case they get better or their value increased, I noticed that if I excersise the buy back clause I still get the percentage stablished on the sell on clause even though Im buying the player myself.... is this how it is suppsed to be or is it a bug?

It must be the way it actually works, as otherwise you would have to clause the contract that no sell on fee is applicable if buying back, which would be irritating.

In real life I would think the clubs would just agree a fee minus the percentage or just ignore it.

Yah but if as I did I sell a player on 2.8 million with a buy back clause for 4.7 million and a sell on clause for 45% It means I can sell a player then buy it back right away and cheat the AI out of their money..... Cool

You could "choose" to use this to your advantage. Its not a bug because the player is making a consious decision to "cheat".

SI probably should fix this though, so that it can no longer be taken advantage of.

Yeah, I think Sheff Utd did something sneaky like that when they resigned Billy Sharp (or blunt as he's known these days)
