Toby Alderweireld loves Antwerp so much he's got a massive tattoo of Antwerp cathedral. And look what he's just done! Literally incredible scenes

An all-time great football moment. Toby Alderweireld joined hometown club Royal Antwerp last summer, as he always promised he would. Tonight, he has won them their first league title since 1957 with this incredible strike vs Genk in the 94th minute!

But most clubs would take advantage of this loophole if they could. The real fault here is obviously with the rules themselves. How has the Premier League blindly handed clubs the power to play at their own convenience?

I know it’s unusual for a transfer to go through after the window shuts, but I understand the Vatican did in fact submit their deal sheet before the deadline
