Welcome to another edition of the best football tweets of the week, where we still refuse to call Twitter ‘X’.
The Premier League provided a lot of inspiration for content this past week, but it was away from the pitch where the best stuff was being produced, including a slow-mo goal celebration you’ve surely all seen by now, the Malaga fans who have improvised on the club’s lack of transfer signings, and Burnley’s latest world-class transfer announcement.
Here we go!
The best football tweets of the week:

Malaga supporters got tired of waiting for their club to make a transfer. So they ambushed tourists at the airport and greeted them as if they were new signings. Amazing scenes!
Adeptos do Málaga deslocaram-se de propósito ao aeroporto para darem as boas-vindas a vários desconhecidos numa manifestação contra a falta reforços no plantel, que desceu à terceira divisão😅
