Glad to see you're remaining 
Really looking forward to the future for the team and how you're going to approach this transfer window. Some very big names who will be moving around! Naturally, we will be in conversation but I expect the interest may be a bit more one-sided this time around

Really great to see you stick to the game finally 
I mean, I absolutely understand your frustration with the game - I'm definitely in the same boat considering the 2021 season. But great to see you somehow found enough motivation to continue your Greek riders project 
Looking forward to see how you approach transfers, definitely a lot to learn from I guess

Echo the others, great to see you continuing.
As someone who runs a very narrow geography focus interested in how you make it work at the PT level. One of the issues in the back of my mind is what will I do if I do get promoted. If you can make it work with Greece in the PT, I probably should be able to make it work with the US in PCT. But got to make it work in CT first, to test that.

Great to see you continue, love the spin of greek mythology. Wonder who your Persians will be eventually to make a stand against.

Thanks guys for the kind words - I appreciate that! I'm also pretty interested in how this will evolve. It could be a horrorshow tbh

A lot of riders have been renewed - some have not, but I guess those are not so interesting.
Instead of showcasing everyone here's a list of the riders available for transfer in the upcoming season aswell as their stats and wages for the season to come!
Nat. | Name | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | Wage |  | Pierre-Henri Lecuisinier | 71 | 85 | 75 | 77 | 78 | 80 | 79 | 65 | 67 | 74 | 65 | 70 | 77 | 1.050.000 |  | Bryan Coquard | 73 | 59 | 67 | 65 | 71 | 74 | 84 | 56 | 84 | 83 | 60 | 65 | 79 | 625.000 |  | Clement Koretzky | 73 | 71 | 81 | 63 | 77 | 70 | 71 | 63 | 71 | 79 | 73 | 70 | 61 | 450.000 |  | Aidan Van Niekerk | 69 | 74 | 78 | 65 | 72 | 75 | 76 | 66 | 63 | 74 | 82 | 71 | 65 | 150.000 |  | David De la Cruz | 68 | 77 | 74 | 73 | 70 | 74 | 73 | 55 | 59 | 71 | 64 | 72 | 73 | 120.000 |  | Remy Rochas | 67 | 77 | 74 | 61 | 70 | 70 | 73 | 60 | 61 | 73 | 72 | 66 | 62 | 80.000 |  | Victor Lafay | 66 | 73 | 75 | 63 | 72 | 71 | 71 | 62 | 63 | 72 | 76 | 67 | 61 | 50.000 |  | Markus Kopfauf | 69 | 62 | 67 | 65 | 67 | 74 | 67 | 52 | 74 | 73 | 70 | 68 | 81 | 50.000 |
* Huge thanks to knockout for creating this brilliant tool!
Obviously some high stat riders, but also some solid subleaders. Victor Lafay is level 4 but unmaxed, so will max at 75MO 77HI. Markus Kopfauf and Remy Rochas are newly maxed riders, and both have a very solid level.
As always - feel free to comment!

Certainly an interesting list and looking forward to a window where I’m reaching out to you rather than the other way around

Nice set of riders there.

The big point for you is to maximise the amount of money you can get for these obviously as those are going to lay the foundation for your future investments! Really excited to see how you move in this window.

This is about to be the craziest fire sale ever in MG history by FAR. I'm looking forward to the chaos.

I'll definitely get the popcorn ready when transfers start, guess there will be some insane deals 
I guess we won't be talking a lot about your riders, though - except if you again need a home for some Greek talents, like we already did once a couple of years back

This will be epic, that's for sure I'm very curious to see who can bring the most money for whatever deal, assuming you're looking for money only deals as the priority?
Good luck navigating! I'm very confident you'll manage  |

How did this brand new team get the rights to sell and keep the money from Festina's riders?
This will be crazy and I am on the edge of my seat for both how it goes and how the money gets used. Obviously one name sticks out to me but I'm sure I can name at least one other manager that it sticks out to as well

I think I'll keep watch of this from a distance.
A very far distance

Sounds good mate - Regardless of the direction of a rider trade it's always a pleasure to have these on going negotiations with you

Thanks mate 
Indeed, the money is the vital part to this firesale. In an ideal world I would have waited for a season as the biggest talents aren't ready for training yet, but it will be fun to find some money to train those lesser riders that would have never seen improvement otherwise.

The supremacy is not quite in due time I'd say 
If I can somehow manage to get my training plans acustomed for it will be somewhat of a battle to see whether or not I can actually survive aswell. Would probably need a bit of tinkering with a couple of non greeks for very specific races. I guess that's something I need to invent as we go

True - And I kinda am too, after some seasons where the transfermarked has been relatively "slow", in terms of me not selling out that many riders. The core have been the same for quite some time with Lecuisinier, Coquard, Koretzky and Vlatos as the leader in either terrain. Will be a nice change to actually have 3 new open areas.

I hope they'll pop in my direction - The more insane the better of course hehe.
I sure hope we can land some greek talents, that isn't really ready for the level of PT yet so we could definately have talks

The priority is to get as much cash as possible, but not necessarily in the isolated deal. A money+good rider swap would also be very interesting if I see a potential in said rider getting me some money later on in the window (or even next season), that could have priority aswell. But I do have dollarsigns in my eyes indeed 
For once I don't feel too confident that I can juggle this project and stay in the PT at the same time. A relegation could be very costly in terms of developping the biggest greek talents, so this season could well be the key as to whether the project is failing or succeeding. But that's the fun part

That's just something around the shareholding proces 
Nice to hear you are looking fondly into the possibilities of landing Kopfauf. I'm sure (as you say) others will also be very eager

I can't wait for the moment the Lecuisinier deal thread goes up One other rider is of course quite interesting for us, though I assume I won't be the only one inquiring and I'm not even sure I'd want him to end up with us We'll talk though, I'm sure.
