Intl amatuers signing issue?

Dudash · 05-19-2026, 09:23 PM

Maybe I am just not fully understanding the financial side here but nothing on the screen is standing out to me.

I am trying to send an intl amateur free agent that is asking for the full 6.25M signing bonus, which I still have. My first offer was 4M and then it got bumped up to the full 6.25M.

While trying to meet his demand, my owner says he does not approve of the deal because we do not have enough money available? What am I missing??

Edit: I forgot to mention -- just messing around I wanted to offer something really low as a test but it did not matter. Still the same message from the owner.

Nevermind, I see what you're saying.

The issue might be that the league, not the owner, sets the budget for international amateurs.
Does your league use a tax or a hard cap? If you are close to those ceilings, you will get that message from the owner.
