Hello, I've just agreed in negotiations to loan out a player. I was a bit hasty. I have the impression that I've also accepted a very, very low purchase option. Will I have a say at the end of the loan to accept the purchase option or not?

I don't think there's enough visibility for the purchase option, because we often get crazy offers and if we're not careful, we end up with a carrot

It's impossible to check whether there's a validated option or not,

I completely agree! It almost happened to me not long ago - you hardly ever see the option to buy.
And unfortunately some people have to play it...

Yes, you're right
But when someone sends you a request, it's written in small type and as you're just a lender, well the person who sends you a counter-offer is offering you almost the same price but with the option, and it's not immediately obvious, so you really have to be careful

Hello everyone, I'm raising the subject again because I loan a player with a 4M purchase option, and at the end of the loan he returns to my squad without being bought by the club in question! I don't really understand this system. Could you please enlighten me?
For me, an option to buy is automatic, isn't it?

The purchase option must be exercised by the borrower, otherwise it's just a loan.
It's only an option, not an obligation.

In general I refuse either option and a way to negotiate down the price of the loan and option is never lifted.
Or option to buy and crazy price 😁 .
