Youth Contracts

It is now possible to offer the youths a contract when their "youth contract" is ending, although you won't know in advance when that will be. Managers receive a message informing about the youth contract end and the player will become available for hiring or releasing.

Hiring a youth works similarly to a contract renewal: you offer a wage and a period of contract and he decides if it is good or not; if not, he makes a counter proposal, and so on. Releasing a youth happens instantly, after manager confirmation. In both cases, a new youth player becomes available for the team. If you take no action or can't agree a contract, the player leaves the club after some turns.
