I can confirm this, noticed it first time last season - I always look through the scouts even though I never buy them. First day there were a couple of really good young players on the list that disappeared later in the day. Then when I was looking at the squad of someone who was going after a player I wanted on the normal TL, I spotted the two scouts I'd been looking at as well as a few others. I didn't compete in the auction...
