Having trouble selling World Stars
-
I've been noticing it's very hard to sell world stars players (>100+ rating). I even try to sell using the method where you take max sell price and subtract players value. Example I'm trying to sell Harry Kane (value of 50m), his max sell price is 120m. So 120-50=70m...it's been 3 days and no luck.
Anybody else have this issue? This is happening only for world stars. Maybe it's because the league is about 3/4 completed? Anybody have tips on best methods to sell world stars?
Any help would be appreciated!

Yes, late in the seasons, regardless if it's a game bustling with human managers, or completely abandoned by them - it seems that the demand becomes increasingly picky, it becomes harder to flog off any type of player, but the reasons may be a little different in each case: the cheaper players may be seen as affordable, but since they aren't a match for those in the list, they're not desirable (for computer teams). Whereas the expensive players are out of the budget constraints. But there may be also some cumulative variable: the more deals you've concluded in a competition, the harder will the subsequent ones be.The overall price and the markup over their nominal value are definitely factors, but don't sell players only for the list average (well maybe if you need to reshape tactically) because you won't make progress. I've been advertising a 103 DM William Carvalho for several days for the list average in the winners' cup, but nothing happened, but when I started rasing the price, he got noticed. I wouldn't expect the AI to realize a chance is slipping away, but maybe twiddling with the price actually helps selling. It may have also been the efect of the list depopulating (when there are many players, the chances of a particular one to get noticed are smaller, when managers get eliminated it becomes possible to sell for higher prices again).
The relationship to other listed players may be a factor too: the best (human-listed) option for a given quality seems to fare better.
The nationality of the players may influence something too. Brazilians, Spaniards, Englishmen may be selling better than say Portuguese or Frenchmen or Poles (maybe a simulation of targetting the nationality bonus by the most extravagant teams).
