On my old 386 - it was a matter of going to a player's screen and clicking to a certain spot. I believe it was a right-click. But it was like 16-17 years ago, and I can't remember.

Also, I'm playing it in DosBox, so the right-click is mostly "Back" button.

What can I do? My squad is the oldest in PL, and I have some 20M to spend, but I need to buy players that are not listed.

Please help!

I've forgot and remembered how to do this several times)))).

So here is a recipe - go to Transfer window, press button "Entice away", then find interesting team, list all the players, and do a LONG click (press and hold for 2 secs) with your left mouse button. If a club doesn't want to release a player - the game says you, that "The club need this player URGENTLY!", and you couldn't buy him, but if a player is not in the first team plans - it will bring you a standart contract offer window, where you can offer a transfer fee and contract to the player.

You can do a maximum of 5 entices per season! Good luck!

P.S. BTW, it's still hard to buy a goalkeeper in first 2 years of game))

P.P.S. But you don't need a GK player to put in goals, you can put there a 90+ striker or midfielder) and have your goals locked pretty nice 8-)

P.P.S. And here is link to an English scanned manual of this GREAT game!!!
