So ive started a NUFC save, picked the "real world" option, the player in question is Lewis Hall, so before he joins me, Chelsea play him in the first league game of the season, he then joins me and instantly becomes ineligible because

A player under offer who has already played for another team in one season cannot play in the next match or he will be ineligible for his new club

His new club being me.. This clearly isn't working as intended as its designed to stop players playing for more than 2 clubs, but there arent 2 clubs involved, the game clearly doesnt recognise the fact the club he is on loan at and the club he has a transfer arranged to goto are one and the same, more worryingly I found a thread on Google from 2018 with this exact same bug, but very few replies.

Screenshots attached for clarity. sc1 sc2 sc3

For some reason screenshot 3 is flagged as 18 ....
