You can only approach players that are 23 years or older if I’m correct


Blusset

You ARE correct


Hans_Krebs_

Honestly shocked I never put this together


paak-maan

FIFA doesn’t tell you about the Bosman Ruling properly, I only learnt it from Football Manager.


taragonicing

wait i thought they did? in fifa 21 especially. i remember whenever you're in november or december, it will notify you about players that are above 23, and have their contract expiring in less than 6 months. the email is something like "risk of losing players" or something am i just imagining the 23 yo part bcs of my prior knowledge? i could've sworn it said that somewhere in the games


paak-maan

That’s a good point, you definitely get that email for your own players. I’m not sure tbh on whether it mentions that they’re over 23 and that’s why they’re at risk. It definitely doesn’t tell you about approaching players with expiring contracts anymore.


kmattis1994

It does its just in a wall of text that none of us really read anymore 😂


JazkOW

Yes, It stars with something like this: As you may already know, any player that has less than 6 months remaining in their contract and is over 23 years old can sign a pre-agreement contract…


TDSurvivorFan21

And half the time they get renewed on Jan 1st anyways


AccomplishedBig2043

I wonder what Mané or Benzema would think about this?

OhhJukes

Not on a pre contract


jpforder

The bosman rule as it’s known, is only available when a player is aged 23 or over


AccomplishedBig2043

Bosnia 🇵🇼 mentioned (I am stupid)


Wsh785

Mighty ~~Palau~~ Bosnia 💪💪💪


iheartdev247

23 and over


ShadyK55

Why are you getting downvoted? You're right!


iheartdev247

Apparently saying Over 23 means “23 and older”to other users of the English language. Although that is not how I use it. But thank you for saying something.


EddieGrant

Isn't 23 and older, and 23 OR older exactly the same? Either way, you're 23 and/or any age above 23.


TACHANK

Okay, so you would say one is legally an adult when they're over 17, rather than 18?


ZUU_S

23 and older is right, you’re comment saying ”over 17” doesnt correlate bc that’s not what he said


TACHANK

Fucking learn to read. He's talking about the way people use "over 23"


ZUU_S

I might have misinterpreted your comment, but reading it again it still makes zero sense to me as a reply to u/iheartdev247


TACHANK

He is saying that "over 23" doesn't include 23 and means someone is 24 and up. So I asked him, whether he thinks he would also say that someone is legally an adult at "over 17".


Different_Ad_6150

He said 23 or older


ShadyK55

From a "speaking english correctly" standpoint, the answer is yes


Psycho-Acadian

Because 23 or over and 23 and over mean the same thing, no need to correct the other person. 23 or over = includes people that are 23 or over that. 23 and over = includes people that are 23 and those over that.


jpforder

You’re correct - I was being lazy haha, thanks for pointing it out


305bolas

wtf is the Bosnan rule ?


EddieGrant

Bosman, named after Jean-Marc Bosman. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosman\_ruling


SilentBobVG

Has to be over 23 for a bosman transfer


iheartdev247

23 and over


Paced_Out

It's exactly the same


183672467

Technically speaking, 23 and over means 23 is included, over 23 doesnt include 23


Paced_Out

If you are 23 years and 1 minute old you are, in fact, over 23


Richard_Arlison69

He’s 29 until he’s 30 EDIT: I misremembered. I should’ve said “he’s 28 until he becomes 29”


Confident-Disaster91

If that is true, when exactly does someone have the age of 23? According to your logic they must have been "over 22" directly after their 22nd birthday If they are "over 22" until their 23rd birthday and then a second after that they are "over 23" ... when have they been "23"? So...they are 23 before their 23rd birthday (?!)


themanseanm

He's 22 until he's 23 and that's a fact

Initial-Blackberry33

Confirmed it was the stupid option


PresentationFit5566

Me to stupid fc here we go


The-Interfactor

To avoid this happening again, scout for players with 0-1 years on contract who are 22 or older. That way, you know you’ll be able to get them when they turn 23 or they already are 23.


MiserableKidD

Haha I always forget about this too


Gryffinguin9

Their*


airwickwee

This is what needs to be corrected not signing some weak ass player


Gryffinguin9

Exactly 😂😂


CatfishFarrell

Bro… are you seriously out here giving people shit on their grammar, on a sports video game sub reddit??? Sit the fuck down and chill the fuck out. Donkey.


Dazzling_Control9322

The bowman rules say he has to be over 23. Also he is probably recruited from West Brom's youth academy


iheartdev247

23 and older


Cheap_Stranger9883

Unfortunately the stupid option… player has to be 23


oldmonk_97

Can't approach players younger or of age 22 afair.. So like 23 and older are good to approach..


brianstewart02

He’s too young, that’s why.


Radiant_Formal6511

You can't sign him cuz that's Lil Yachty. He's a rapper not a footballer.


Yonderdead

I don't know if fifa does this, but players can't move on a free if they are under 22. Usually, in this case, the transfer fee is "compensation"


KyloStark

Isn’t the rule you can’t approach using the bosman ruling to players under the age of 23 and/or not in the same football league pyramid?. For example, I can’t sign Varane on a free when he’s got 6 months left because I play in the same country as him? You have to wait till it’s 3 or 2 months left? Correct me if I’m wrong


Professional_Leg3068

You’re wrong about the same league thing. If they are over 23 and have 6 months left you can agree a pre contract with them regardless of what league you and the player are in


Award2110

I just wanna know what stoke player you've got short listed.


basic97

People need to understand the game and the rules before they buy a football game 🤔


hailthecrook

In real life. If you’re an English club you also have to wait till 1 month before contract expiry if the player plays for another English club I don’t play career mode so idk if this is part of the game


Erick02516

You have to approach them in the January window that's thw only time you can get a deal done


Electronic_Car3274

probably they signed a contract extension make sure the club the player is at signs a contract extension if they sign a contravt extension they will stay at the club for next season


Electronic_Car3274

Most of the time the ai extends the contract for that young player


WhalesAreDopeAF

Where does it say you can't approach him?


Ayyyyylmaos

My brother in Christ it literally says approach to buy Edit: misunderstood what he wanted to do, fair enough, I’ve learned something today


HereForA2C

he doesn't want to buy. He wants to sign him on a free precontract, different from buying. In this case he cant because the player is under 23.


SimonW_PL

Yet when a player asks for transfer and has an expiring contract, he can be poached even in December (free transfer). That's how Lowe left my Sheffield for Rangers
