    You will almost certainly get a message in the game saying he will delay his retirement for one more season.

    30 years + 2 contract years means this one +, next season when he have 31, then the retirement age once you renew the contract will be between the end of the season when he have 32 years till 34, and the contract can be extended year to year once the definitive retirement age is set.

    **I mean, the "contract years, count the actual season, so when say 1 year, means this season and then in this case you'll have 7 days once next season starts to renew the contract.

    32 yo player set to retire extends his own contract!!!

    I got a message when logging on today that my 32 yo Legendary striker has decided to take a one year contract extension rather than retire. How is this possible?

    I wanted him to retire. He has beeen a great player but at 32 he no longer is the player he once was. I am carrying him and another 32 yo because I wanted them to retire with dignity without me transferring them off some where. Now I have two dead spots on my roster for an additional year.

    Is the game really programmed to just extend players as it sees fit?

    Sell them to a lower level team and let them have 1 year Swan-song.

    I let 2 of my legends go last season, both 32yo. They then became 5* to the lower level team I sold them to, I friended him so I can see their progress. Brilliant stats both of them so the new team got 1 season out of 2 legends.

    Did you sell during the last week of the season or is there a way to know who they go to using the normal auction tool?

    I was offered tokens for both in the last week yes. That’s why I friended the buyer.
    You cannot know which hole they disappear into when sold through auctions.
