Get more money by re-purchasing a player!

[suhailio]

MLO Tip.

Not sure if you all have figured it out yet, but if you have had a player for a long time, you will make profit out of him if you release him.

For example, I bought Messi. He has played about 50 matches for me now. If I release him today, I will make 11 million profit from him. So instead of renewing his contract, I could release him & re-purchase him straight away for a cheaper price. That extra cash I will end up pocketing! :w00t

I also made 6 million profit on Ibrahimovic. If I do the same with him, I'll get 17million profit from just two players. That's alot of money!

I don't recommend that you keep releasing players & re-purchasing them everytime their contract runs out. I suggest that you wait until the profit margin has increased to a good amount, and then do this.

To find out if you've made profit on a player, or how much profit. Click release on a player. The amount of how much you will recieve will show up before you actually confirm the release. You then compare that with the transfer fee of the player. If it's obviously higher, then you've made a profit.

You're welcome.

But if you re-purchase him, and his price has increased, you pay the increased price, no?

Nope. Price only increases for the player playing for your team. My Messi is now worth 58 million. I think he is about 47 million with contract for everyone else?

Experiment with a player which you've had for long & has come to the end of a contract. You'll see what I mean.

hahaha, thanks for the information

If this worked for me...it will be quite a discovery by you mate

 

[iamcanadianeh]

It does work actually, but not as much for my players (worth a fraction of your Messi). You should keep in mind however that if you keep a player for long enough for his return fee to go up, that you are also paying him more per contract in salary because of his contribution, so it's almost as if you are just getting that money back. When you resign him I'm not sure if his contribution goes back to where it was or resets. If it resets then releasing and resigning is definitely worth it, if not, it seems like it is still a good idea.

I have tried it with a few players already. 100% guaranteed that it will work for you.

Yeah, there is also the advantage of giving him a lower salary again when you resign the player. It's just like real life football business if you think about it. A team buys a player, makes him good & then gets profit from him when it comes time to sell. It's not cheating or being sly. It's your effort which has made the player good. The goals & assists you make with him, aswell as contribution & match rating, I think all of it is calculated together to work out the profit.

People are missing out if they are not aware of this, I must say.

Yeh I observed the same today with Ameobi..his salary was less and so was his transfer cost but ill tell you what...everytime you renew a players contract their wages rises by some +xyz percent. :|

 

[johnjohnpan]

I think it works after all..buy a player..renew for 50 games..and then release and re-purchase when the 50 game contract is over..However, I think this works much better with popular players whose price goes up..many thanks for sharing..

 

[firestorm79]

But the real question is, does contribution rating enhance the player at all?? There must be a point for it apart from simply going up for every 20 matches he's played for u!?!

This is a very good question. The way I see it, if the player's contribution rating, wages, transfer fee is all going up, aswell as him having appearances, goals & assists to his name, then I could only assume that the player is being enhanced too, whether the improvement is blatant or not.

I highly highly doubt that. It is much more likely that Konami missed having the contribution reset. They said early (not sure where, maybe even in the manual) that contribution was NOT supposed to reset to zero after selling a player, so it seems clear that it's just a glitch. Perhaps they will fix it with the next patch (one of the descriptions of what they are planning to fix sounds like it might be this).

Why would contribution not be reset to zero once selling the player? Or do you mean after resigning the player, the contribution should still remain the same for that particular player? I could understand popularity, but not contribution.

Again, I'm not sure where I read it, but contribution was supposed to remain the same even after resigning. Trust me on this. It was obviously a mistake on Konami's part not to do it that way. Their intention with it was to make it so that you can't hold onto the same player forever. You have to keep shuffling your squad, or the price of a player just gets higher and higher (or tops out perhaps).

You don't have to believe me, but I swear that this was in an official statement from Konami somewhere, probably in their press releases outlining new features for MLO.

Besides, it actually does make sense if you think about it. The whole reason for having the contribution "stat" is to make the price of the player go up as you use him. If you can just sell him to reset it to zero then why would they even have contribution in the first place? :no:

Why would someone want to get rid of a player if their price is getting higher & higher? Or do you mean the salary getting higher? The price getting higher (which it does), it will benefit you because you're going to make profit once you sell the player. The profit could be seen as an encouragement to get rid of the player, yes.

Ya, I mean contract/salary. The fact that the value also goes up is another incentive as I see it. I really think the whole intention of this new contribution system was to make us shuffle our squads more, but since you can just sell a player and make money, then buy him back without the contract resetting, the whole system is nonsensical to me.

Maybe I'm missing something, but again, to me, it seems like an error on Konami's part. If I find that quote about the contribution stat I will post it...

PEACE

need all the help i can get...playing solid for two weeks average squad rating of 70 and ive been taking some heavy beatings...fighting a losing battle with through ball spammers and serial laggers

 

[Griciu]

Sounds like a nice tip, but man do i hate releasing players and re-purchasing them, I like to keep a record of all of their caps and goals, assists... all that info under Manage Squad.
