It’s been a great week for footballers taking the tube, so let’s celebrate by rounding up ten photos of that very phenomenon.
First Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha was spotted on the Underground following his side’s 4-0 defeat at Man City, then Spurs duo Christian Eriksen and Eric Dier were snapped the next day.
They’re far from the only instances of footballers taking the tube, though – witness these ten pictures, starting with the aforementioned…
