Can't re-sign player after a trade?

This guy signed a 6 year deal in the 2016 season. It is now the 2021 season (so the 6th season of his deal).

I traded for him at the start of 2021. I am not given the option to sign him to a new contract. I

If I signed a street free agent to a 1 year deal, I know I could not then sign him longer. But if I signed a street free agent to a 2+ year deal, I could renegotiate at any time.

Even though he's new to my team, this player is in the last year of a 6 year deal, not a 1 year free agent. Shouldn't I be able to offer him a longer deal as an extension to the current contract I inherited from his prior team?

I think there is a bug on the old version of the site that caused that, I see your link is on the new version but did you accept the trade or did the other party?

At any rate I have fixed his contract so that you can renegotiate him.

Thank you!

I proposed the trade, the other team accepted it.

I'm having the same issue with two players in Cust-62

That one looks like he actually is in the first year of his contract.

I had the same issue in MFN 19. I lost a player because he did Not show up in the renigiotiate wizard so I lost him in free agency.
