What was your strangest transfer of all time? Where the player and the club just don't fit.

Samuel Eto'o to Everton was more than a bit weird.
Along similar lines, Sam Allardyce era Bolton pulled off some mad signings.
Youri Djorkaeff 🤯
Fredrick Larsen to Barca, Graversen to Madrid
Henrik* 🤣🤣
Larson was brilliant, you're insane
Larsen was amazing at Barca. Won them that final against Arsenal
But at the time it felt mad.
Most Celtic fans never doubted it. He really was a phenomenal player.
I meant more with the players they already had at the time and with him getting on. He was up there at Celtic. Just felt like a mad one to me.
Them lot over the park signing Ben Davies from Preston when he wasn't even guaranteed games for Preston.
Reminds me of when they signed Nicky Tanner from Bristol Rovers. Bobby Gould had been told to bite Torquay's hand off for £5k cos Rovers were so desperate for money. Dalglish came in last minute and offered £10k and off he went to sit in their reserves for years
Shout!
John Sheridan to Forest was an odd one. Joined summer 1989, made one appearance in the League Cup and left for Sheffield Wednesday in 1989. Clough just immediately decided he didn't like him and that was that
Should have read November 1989. So he was there August - November and played once
Maupay -👀
The way the Kanchelskis transfer was on then off and then back on again nearly killed me as a 12 year old kid mate, surprised I’ve made it this far 😂
You as well? 🤣
Well if you want history Roger ‘Ernie’ Hunt Wolves to Everton 1967 on the back of an FA Cup game Catterick signed him he scored 3 goals? One was 3 miles offside v MCFC but he got more space in Bally’s bio than any other Everton player!
In a Galactico era, Gravesen and Real Madrid takes some beating 🤣🤣🤣
James Rodriguez is up there
Faubert to Madrid. Mad.
