KP Boateng and Martin Braithwaite at Barcelona, just for somehow going from Middlesbrough to there

Summed up hilariously in a tweet by emile heskey

"Barcelona are about to sign Martin Braithwaite, which is sensational for three reasons: 1. Got 8 goals for Middlesbrough in 2 seasons 2. Dubbed the Leganes Chris Brown 3. Sounds like a Downton Abbey character"

Michael Owen at Man Utd is one I always seem to forget about.

Scored that last minute winner in the derby.

Brogue Eric Dier @ Everton


I would imagine people didn't know about this because he never made a senior appearance for them and joined their academy only as "an opportunity for the athlete to grow in a more competitive and demanding environment" which was included in the press release from SP Lisbon.

I would imagine the rules of the thread would have to include senior appearances only.

Absolutely, I don't buy into the rules are there to be broken mantra.

The others are good and the two you mentioned (along with Dier) were the only ones I had to do a quick google of.
