I don't think so. Of course, I am assuming that you are talking about the high auction price.

I see this all the time. A lot of managers seem to way overpay for 15 y/o's with a lot of potential.

This player went for over 20m. He probably won't reach that in posted player value until he is about 27/28 y/o.

I really don't understand the over-valuing of 15 y/o players. The only thing that I can think of is that some managers have so much cash to spend that they don't mind overpaying for a quality player that they can train from start to finish. At least, that is my guess.

It certainly is not the fact that a 15 y/o player has no salary for the first year. The salary savings doesn't come close to making up for the overpayment.

As the one who bid that much I can tell you no it wasn’t smiley

He is an MC (one of the most valuable positions along with CB) prices will always go higher. He had a nice report on my scouts. Price is fine & normal smiley
