18 year old free agents, where do they go?

[nikolgiorgos]

I believe that at least 80-90 % of the managers keep the worst academy players to sell them and release the good, expensive (tokens) ones.
So
- the free youth disappear, nordeus doesn't get any T, the manager doesn't win anything
loose - lose situation
- if the good youngsters went in the market, nordeus would won many tokens as you mention but the managers couldn't sell their players
so win-loose situation
- if the good academy players had lower cost, say 8-9-10 T instead of 18-21-24, the managers would keep them so
win-win situation
