Saido Berahino is not the first footballer to threaten strike action after failing to get his own way in the transfer market.

Berahino tweeted his intention not to play again under West Brom chairman Jeremy Peace after the Baggies rejected a reported four bids from Tottenham in the transfer window.

But the recent history of football rebels suggests Berahino will soon be left with little option but to pull the black and white striped shirt back on.
