I'm at my max budget for next season, and have 2 free agents who I'd like to keep next year. I can't extend them now because of my budget, but I have most everyone else returning and an 82m payroll now that I can comfortably increase to sign these 2 guys next season.
They are both 'willing to stay, just make an offer' ... Will they be more likely to have the same response in preseason FA next season, or are these unrelated?
