Two times - this definitely prevents abuse of the con boosters feature of the game and makes it a bit more difficult when thinking of trades. Four times - for 99% of the time this rule won't be used, but will prevent situations from getting a bit crazy like with Wilhelmsson.

It will probably rarely get used, as the whole Wilhelmsson situation is extremely rare. Also, what about having a certain time frame instead of a total number of trades? Something like a player can't be traded for 3 or 4 sims, or something like that?

I can see a regular player being traded three times between turnovers (before the season, trade deadline and after the season (but before the turnover.) I also believe that it is easier to the simmers and the TC members to follow this rule.

Prospects don't get evaluated and shipped all the time. Fringe players could easily and realistically move 4 times a season but prospects on the other hand would be sparred this kind of treatment as most clubs only really evaluate prospects at the beginning of the season. That's my 2 cents but I put for cause the post doesn't allow for such distinction.

As of the start of next season, a new rule will be implemented that a player can not be traded more then 4 times within a season (turnover to turnover)
