Contracts, wages and clauses

warning

A contract edit does not run a negotiation, register the player, grant a work permit or exchange a transfer fee. Check those separately when needed.

Use Contract to change an existing deal's expiry, wages, playing time, bonuses or clauses.

Understand the displayed units

• Check Currency and Wages in Settings → General → Appearance before entering money. Weekly, monthly and annual amounts differ.
• Started, Signed, Joined Club and Expires describe different dates.
• Agreed Playing Time, transfer status and loan status use the choices shown in the list.

Extend an existing contract

1. Open the player and select Contract.
2. Choose the current-club contract if several are listed.
3. Set Expires to the new date. Leave the other dates as they are unless you also intend to change them.
4. Adjust wages or clauses if wanted, then select Save Changes.
5. Check the contract in Football Manager.

Release clauses for many players

To set or remove a release clause for many players at once, use a preset with a Release clause action, or the Release clause fields on the Contract tab of Mass Edit.

Loan contracts

After a loan move, reload the player and open Loan Contract to set dates, fees, playing time and loan clauses.
