U21 and NT team can save this prospects by adding them to the national team, thus when team goes botified, they automatically go on FA.
It's at the appreciation of national coach to decide if they have to save them or not.
Yeah, I think this works well the way it is now.
However, I'd like it if players, when fired by active managers, hit free agency regardless if their salary is 10k or greater. I know there was at least one occurrence of a 200k+ salary center with NT aspirations being fired by a manager from another country, who I guess didn't want to pay his salary. This shouldn't be allowed to happen, as a NT/U21 coach has no chance to save the player in this instance.
Also, maybe an adjustment of the filter so the 10k minimum changes to, let's say 4.5k for 18yos, 8k for 19yos?
