like I've got Sandro who Man City wants and his value is 28.5 million, which is what Man City are offering me but before I reject the offer I would like to know his actual value like the right fee Man City will buy him for. So like how do you find out the right price for what player you want to sell? want to do this for Paulinho as well because haven't really used him as much for the first season but yet his value is 23.5 million so I'm just wondering is that the actual value that clubs will pay him for or is that your club value of the player.. In other words really I just want to know the right price for each player so I don't get ripped off/ get the right amount! haha thanks!
 
just negoitate and see..if they need him they will pay you 40 milllion.try to negoitate and if the withdraw bid then offer them for less money and see..its just about your patience and their resources :D

yes but I swear if you negoitate too high they just reject the offer and thats it
 
Just set a price for him, base it on his importance to your team, how much time he has left on his contract, how much he is getting per week, and his age/future value... No one can really tell you a "true" value, because there are so many variables.
Sell him for the price that feels right to you. If you think he is worth more than the offer, negotiate. If they don't take it, just keep looking for a potential buyer somewhere else.

The best way to deal with this is to ask yourself these questions:

- What is Sandro's value to you? Do you want to keep him or would selling him bring in some needed cash, free up some of your wage budget and provide a squad space into which you could insert a younger, better (and possibly cheaper) player?
- Would the 28.5-million currently on the table represent a positive ROI on the original fee that Tottenham paid for him? It makes a difference to how the Board and the fans feel about the deal.
- If you do want to keep him, can you think of a price that, if received, would make the sale worthwhile from your point-of-view?

If you would rather sell him, then there's no point in scuppering a potential deal by holding out for 50-million. Similarly, if City's opening bid is 28.5-million then they may well be prepared to negotiate into the mid-30s. It makes a difference whether you transfer-listed the player or this is an unsolicited bid. When negotiating, you can use the performance-related incremental payments to spread the cost over several months/years and sell-on clauses to increase the total value of the deal in a way they might find more palatable. And I'd take a look through their U21 and U18 ranks to see if there are any prospects that you would happily take off their hands if it meant a lower fee for Sandro.

If you haven't used Paulinho much then you'll struggle to get, say, 40-million for him, but again, if there are interested parties you might be able to nudge the fee a bit higher than his 23.5-million rating. If you get several bids at once then look through them all before you accept a lesser deal, and if you get one club to agree a higher fee, that becomes the starting point for your negotiations with all the others.

In the end, though, fees for individual players are not so very important. The aim is really to have a better squad at the end of the transfer window than you had at the beginning while working within your total budget. You'll over-pay here and under-pay there, likewise with player sales; the trick is to be better off overall.

Make yourself familiar with the youth ranks of Barcelona, Madrid, Munich etc. You can pick up some world class youngsters on free transfers at times, simply because their path into the First Team is blocked by an established world classer of a previous generation. I signed a world class potential Egyptian keeper on a free from Barcelona and then sold Jack Butland to Monaco for 24-million, at about 16-million profit. I also sold an Italian centre-back, who I had signed on a free, for about 16-million and replaced him with a player transfer-listed by Dortmund for 2.5-million, who was just as good but two years younger and less demanding on the wages front.

Also, get your Youth Academy sorted and start churning out quality players, so you can concentrate your transfer funds towards fewer but more lucrative deals for the very best players around.
 
If you have transfer listed the player, its tough to sell the player for much over his value as the clubs buying will know you want to get rid of the player.
Sometimes rejecting a bid without negotiating can result in another offer being made thats higher.

When I transfer list players I'm happy to sell at there value, sometime less, but if you get bids for non transfer listed players you can be a little more aggressive in your negotiations.
I will normally ask for about 50% more on non transfer listed offers, they will negotiate and meet somewhere in the middle.
