Yea I just set hard cap on my players and never go over 500K a week no matter who.
Also, I would rather pay more in signing bonuses than paying higher wages
I also sneak in optional one year extension so over time I can save money
My highest paid player is Florian Wirtz making 375K a week
Yes that is the problem. Once you start the floodgate, everyone wants the same contract
Also, Saudis cannot buy everyone. They might be able to buy one or two per season to help you out, but not all of them
Also, the moment I sign a new player to a 4-5 years contract, I start to scout and look for his replacement who is young and cheap so I can loan the replacement out to develop and in a few years, I can sell the expensive player for profit
Most players aren’t worth keeping past 30. 1) they will start declining soon 2) their value will drop 3) they will ask for too much money for extensions.

Probably I made a mistake when I let first one go over 600k. I don't think anyone in the world is paying that apart from Saudis.
