Mats Hummels - Need help with his contract

[Gameophile]

So I'm in my first season on FM 2011 with Borussia Dortmund and I'm now in January, Mats Hummels' agent wants an improved contract for Hummels and so I went to improve it and I can't..

He wants 73,000 per week when I can only offer up to 67,000 per week, what do I do!? Do I have to sell him or is there a way I can make him stay?

[Man v.1]

You put him as a key player or first team? Are you able to increase your wage budget by going to the board room and adjust the scale?

Update: I've managed to have a conversation with Mats and told him that he can expect to get an improved contract in the future, hope it works

I have already adjusted the budget quite a bit, I'll check his role in the team now, thanks

He is a key member, so can't do much more really now

give his agent a higher fee

I just tried, I can increase it but not confirm the contract because of the wage Mats Hummels wants

Lower the wage mate .For eg , he wants 73.000, and you can only offer him 67.000 . Try to offer him that, negotiate !
