Markt

From Maxithlon

When you click on a your own athlete you can put him in the Market through the box where you have to insert the minimum price from which the auction will start. From that moment the athlete will stay in the market for three days and, during that period, each club can make a bid. If no club make a bid equal or higher the minimum price, the athlete will stay in your team. According to how much time the athlete stayed in your club, you will receive a certain percentage of the maximum bid. The percentage is 50% for the new-purchased athletes and it increase 0,5% for each day he stay in your club before you put him in the market, until the 90% of the sale price after 80 days from purchase. For each sale a 5% percentage is given to the club that has promoted the athlete from its own youth squad. For an athlete you have promoted (his income percentage starts at 90%) you will receive a maximum of 95% of sale price. In the case the sold athlete had a individual sponsor, the sponsorship contract won't remain valid. Another particular situation is where the sold athlete received a convocation for the Individual National Championship: if the athlete is already enrolled to the event, then he will lose the possibility to take part to the event, otherwise he will keep the right to partecipate.

In the page Market you can choose among many search parameters from which you can see only the athletes that meet the choosen parameters. Now you can select the athlete you are interested in and make a bid through the appropriate box. The minimum raising in the auction is the 5% of the current price, with a minimum of 1.000€.

If another club's bid is higher than yours, you will be warned through a status message. If someone make a bid in the last 3 minutes of the auction the deadline is extended for 3 additional minutes compared with the previous deadline; for example, if the auction expires at 12:10 and a club make a bid at 12:08, the auction will be extended until 12:13.

To have a preview about the value of your athlete you can use the link Compare transfers that you find just below the offer box: clicking on it you will see a page containing the prices of similar athletes sold during the previous days. The page contains also the parameters used for the comparison, age, care and the selling price.

It can take up to 45 minutes from the deadline of the auction to have the new athlete enlisted in your club.
