This is what happened to a former player of mine, Jugert Gjata.
The details are seared into my brain: I sell a SG for 200,000. He gets some training and a RnG offense -- he takes off. Leads league in scoring, becomes MVP.
One day, I am catching up on my players whom I have sold in my team records. I can't find my player! Indeed, the revenue I had received from his sale has been erased from my transfer totals! I remember his name, search, and find him on yet another team. The team who had purchased him from me had folded. My player then had been claimed off the Free Agent transfer list and is now scoring big for yet another team. If I recall correctly, if you look at his personal record, you can see his games from ages past for me, but on the personal record / history, his current life begins with being nabbed off the the Free Agent list.
