Question about some rule that I probably don't know about.

So I bought 19 year old Marquinhos from Roma, he is now 21, and has developed enough to be a rotation player for me at CB. Well, Corinthians "made a bid" for him. I looked in my transfer center, and the fee was $0, and it said they were negotiating a contract. I was worried because it seemed like I was going to get this promising player snatched out from under me, but in the end Marquinhos turned them down.

He was not transfer listed, however he was loan listed (forgot to take him off the loan list from last season, I guess). I don't understand how a team can just all of the sudden offer a player a contract.

The only thing I can think of that might be the cause: I bought a young prospect from Corinthians who is set to join my squad after the current season. Oh, and Marquinhos played for Corinthians before he played at Roma.

Could one of those things allow them to try and steal him like they did?

Is his contract up in the next six months or less?

Yes, I'm in March, his contract is up after the season, I was just going to renew contracts then.

If they have less than 6 months remaining teams don't have to pay to sign him?

yes other teams can do this - so make sure you offer a contract asap.

some places you can't do this, e.g. the premier league you can't poach other teams in the league's players if they have less than 6 months left, only when they have a month left on their contract. but teams from other countries can come in with a contract offer with 6 months remaining

Since you're at a rich club, it's best if you extend the players you know you want to keep before they even get down to a year left. That way you'll get top dollar if you do decide to sell them. The closer a player is to the end of their contract, the less teams are willing to pay for them.

This is not always an option at smaller clubs where you're basically year to year on what you can spend on payroll.
