What this can and cannot know

Candidates' clubs, ratings, values, wages and contracts are from the start of the save. Ages are moved on 2 seasons to 2027/28; nothing else is.
Club level is the mean overall of a club's best 16 players in EA's roster at the start of the save. Ours is the same measure over our current squad's ratings in this save.
A value is not an asking price: a club usually wants more, and the game decides whether a player will talk at all.
A contract shown in amber ended by 2027 at the start of the save. The game may have renewed it or moved the player since.
Nothing here knows who is transfer-listed or next season's budget. The budget above is today's.
