My Construction Master retired and I immediately replaced him with the best available unassigned staff who had skill level 6. 

The next day I bought a replacement to fill the quota for unassigned staff. His best skill was Construction Master level 7. Ouch!

Yes, it's a massive transfer fee, but the player is world class and still improving. 

What's the issue exactly?

It depends how much bidders there was

Yes, other bidders help to 'legitimise' the amount to some degree, But whether there were other bidders or not is not proof that the transfer fee is either excessive or reasonable. 

I'm not admin, but if I were I would ask myself 2 main questions. 

Is the transfer fee within the normal range for 'fair value' and is this an unusual purchase and/or amount for the buying manager? 

When it comes to deciding on 'fair value' the best guide is what other similar players are selling for. This is much more difficult when it comes to valuing the very best players in the game.

This one was a fairly young supertalent at birth and trained for most of his career in an FA6 with 2 staff, which goes some way to explain his massive stats. He's only 26, yet to reach his peak and loyal, so how do you put a fair value on that? Other world class players have sold for similar amounts. I wouldn't want to pay that myself, but it's probably not excessive especially if the buying manager has a track record.  

And when I looked at the buyer that's exactly what I see. North American Champions League finalist for each of the last 5 seasons: 73, 74, 75, 76, 77. 

If it was a one off massive purchase I would have more concerns but the buyer has a track record and knows what he's doing.

This transfer window is awful - seriously fed up after winning about 1 bid in 20!

Lol, Cloughie I saw what you did there. That's very funny Like was that a mistake or something?   Majority of the profit would be taken by the bank since you bought him and sold him in same window.
