Work permits are the bane on my life

I’m playing as Mold Alex in the Cymru Premier. Currently 18 seasons on and I’ve built them up to dominate domestically and be competitive in Europe. Last season, we lost in the Conference League final to Sunderland, who were relegated from the top flight. Annoying, but they were leagues above us in quality.

A few years ago, I picked up a Spanish regen from their lower leagues for 35k, Robert Gual. He was supposed to be the chosen one. I loaned him out to progressively better clubs for the past three seasons, the latest of which was Elversberg in Bundesliga 2. Still, he doesn’t get a work permit, so I give him one more season before I decide to offload. This summer, an Eredivisie team and Serie A team come in for him. Perfect, I think. Band 1 or 2 should see him earn enough points.

But what does he do? He rejects every single offer they give him. So now the window is closed and he’s sat rotting in my reserves. All he had to do was accept Monza and within half a season he would’ve landed a permit.

Robert Gual, you are an arsehole.
