Signing top players is expensive. If you need more money but don’t want to use up your financial takeovers, we can show you how to increase transfer budget to approximately £1 million.

Step by Step Instructions: How to Increase Transfer Budget

Read this through before starting the process and be sure to save regularly.

1. Pick Team

Start a new career mode and choose a team that already has a starting transfer budget of at least £20 million.

2. Sim First Season

Using the calendar, advance to two weeks before the end of the season.

3. Alter Budget

Go into your club finances and find your budget. Use the slider to adjust this so that 99% of our budget is wages.

4. Offer contract

Pick a player in your squad that you don’t mind losing, but other clubs wouldn’t mind having. Offer him a new contract with a huge salary. You should be able to afford to offer at least £17 million.

5. Check Budget

Go back and check your budget and make a note of it, wages and transfers.

6. End Season

Proceed to the end of the season and activate the ‘End Season’ option.

7. Shortlist Player

In the second season, find a player you’d like to sign. It’s important that his club are likely to want the player you offered a new contract to. Shortlist him in your transfer hub.

8. Approach to Sign

Approach the club to sign that player. When asked about the type of deal, choose player swap and offer the player with the huge wages.

9. Negotiate Contract

If the offer is successful, offer the new player a regular contract. Completing this step will mean you gain the new player and the player on huge wages transfers to the other team.

10. Adjust Budget

Go and check your budget. The numbers should be much larger now, but the slider will still be set to 99% wages. Change this so that the majority is on transfers and you should have around £1 billion in transfer budget. This is our method to increase transfer budget. If it didn’t work for you, try again.
