These are the answers that the Mirror give after the quiz (I think 1 of them is wrong though!) - Keen to get opinions on the mirrors answers vs mine.
1. Which club signed two South American stars in a controversial double deal on the last day of the 2006 summer transfer window? - West Ham (Thanks burstlikeabubble)
2. Which club famously missed out on signing Adrien Silva by just 14 seconds? - Leicester
3. In 2013, which club received - and rejected - a bid of £40m+£1 for their star player? - Liverpool
4. Which club sold the most expensive English football player of all time? - Aston Villa
5. Matius Vuoso made a £3.5m move to England in 2002, but didn’t play one minute of Premier League football. Who did he sign for? - Manchester City
6. Who announced a club-record signing in 2009, nearly 24 hours after the winter transfer window had closed? - Arsenal
7. In the 2022 winter window, the Premier League’s tallest player was on the move - but who did he sign for? - Aston Villa (I think it should be Newcastle)
The prize is £500 TUI vouchers and £500, by way of cashiers cheque or bank transfer (which can be used for spending money and to book a Real Madrid Stadium Tour £35-45 per person, at the winner's convenience).

Well villa wasn't even an option for number 7 but Newcastle was so they've definitely got that one wrong. Thinking you're instincts are right!9

Yeah number 7 i'd say it was Dan Burn who signed for Newcastle United9
-
Number 1 is definitely West Ham cos they signed Tevez and Mascherano in 2006.9
-
Newcastle is an option for Q7 now. Dan Burn seems to be that player9
