English football club Widnes Town, playing at the 10th level of the English football pyramid, unexpectedly found themselves in the spotlight after a high-profile transfer.
The team signed Taylor Swift - but it was not the world-famous pop star who used to sell out at Wembley, but a male striker with the same name who entered the field. Such a coincidence immediately caused a stir on social networks, and the club's press service decided to play along with the public by using references to the singer's hits.
"You read that right, there are no typos...Taylor Swift has signed a contract with Widnes Town!," the club confirmed in a statement.
The newcomer did not have to wait long for the result. Taking to the field wearing the number 10 shirt, Swift scored his first goal on his debut against New Mills in a hard-fought 2-2 draw. Despite the successful start, the football player's media weight is still modest: he has only 140 followers on Instagram, which is about 272 million less than his famous namesake.
Swift has a lot of work ahead of her. Widnes Town play in the North West Counties South Division but have had a tough start to the season. After seven rounds, the team is at the very bottom of the standings without a single win.
As fans of the singer would say, it was a real Cruel Summer for the club. Let's hurry, earlier it became known that the goalkeeper of the London club refused to become a king in Uganda.
