We’ll also take you through the brand new transfer negotiation system, which makes its long-awaited debut in FIFA 18. Instead of wangling transfer deals over the distant, cold medium of email the way you used to in previous games, you now get a chance to sit down with agents and the player himself to hammer out a deal.
There are now signing bonuses, release clauses, performance rewards, squad roles and more to discuss with your potential new recruits. You’ll need to really convince players to join your team with the new tools at your disposal. It’s a much more realistic and in-depth way to do business, but takes some getting used to – which is why we’re here.
