    What happened? Did they make a new formula for wages or something?

    One of my guys used to get like £70k and now he is at £400k!!!

    Junior Mason - 26 yo, BT Rating=821,049
    LH Batsman, LM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, low
    A defensive player with strong leadership skills and proficient experience.
    Stamina: superb Wicket Keeping: exquisite
    Batting: wonderful Concentration: elite
    Bowling: feeble Consistency: elite
    Fielding: exquisite

    His salary is £398,656 p/w out of nowhere!!!! My team used to break even pretty much every 2 weeks... now I am losing like £500k in that span! I had like £2.5 million last time I checked (a few weeks ago) and now all of a sudden I'm down to less than £2 million and it's only getting lower!

    Is there a way to check? I don't know for sure, but I'm pretty sure it was around 70k...

    unless you posted his stats somewhere last year there is no way to check.

    not sure how secondaries in regards to total wages work but if someone popped 3 levels in consistency and concentration i could see wages sky rocket

    What most likely happened is you kept training him in fielding, batting, and keeping, he had multiple secondary pops, and the exponential escalators on salary are killing you now.

    You're not the first owner to get pwned by overdoing secondaries.

    So how much can I sell him for?

    I listed him for 15 million but I doubt I'll get that. What can I realistically get for him though? I have about 5-6 weeks left until I go bankrupt so I should probably sell him by the end of November. :/

    I have no idea what you can get for him. The best way to find out is to put him up for 0 and see what kind of bids you get. He may not sell for much -- there aren't many teams that can support that salary, and of the ones that can, there may not be very many that are interested in it.
