10 most bizarre football transfer fees ever paid

2. Marius Cioara

While UT Arad are no strangers to weird transfers (check number 1 to find out why), they really outdid themselves while selling defender Marius Cioara.

While suitors Regal Hornia were in no mood to pay up for Cioara, Arad wanted at least a good meal out of the whole ordeal, and therefore were able to get their hands on 15 kilograms of pork sausages from the buying team for their Romanian player.

However, things got a little tricky when Cioara, understandably peeved, decided to retire just one day after moving to his new sausage-selling team. Quite ironically, he decided to become a farmer, while Hornia, who were left without food for their team as well as a new player, demanded UT Arad for their sausages back.
