Unfortunatly you lose the most ammount of naqudah in this process,and the merc limits stop you from buying enough to mean anything anyways. so maybe untrained mercs should be unlimited.
An untrained merc is useless on a battlefield. I dont see how an untrained merc is even worth 10 naqudah!
Maybe have them "mature" after x amount of days into something else?
you can have unlimited untrained mercs, and they have 3 special qualities to them, one of which being an economically unfriendly bank, ie costs more but your naq is safe

Actually the game will prevent you buying untrained mercs if you have already hit your limit on trained mercs. But there is an easy solution.

I dont think they should be kept, why buy untrained Mercs? I wouldn't pay good money for a useless sack of er... Waste.
I was amused by the ealier suggestion of increasing bank size.. Merc Bankers... lol

what if Untrained Mercs would generate income, of course not as much as Untrained Units... and what if Untrained Mercs could be raided?

that would at least make them a little more usefull since they dont add up to your army size anymore. I think they should only generate very little income and it should be easier to raid them than to raid UU. This could be fun.

That would make them worthwhile.
What about buying them as lifers? Probably an awful idea but hey thought I would throw it somewhere,... Oh yeah over there.

we have Attack mercs, defense mercs.... why we don't have "spy" mercs? This can be something to do with untrained mercs
