If the couple of months after the loan and before he signed counts as being an ex and if being on the bench is sufficient - Mo Leitner.

Sutton played in (but lost) the UEFA cup final with Celtic (which Mourinho’s Porto won).

And if you count playing in a final and becoming a canary and then an ex:

Martin Peters, John Sissons, Ken Brown played in West Ham’s 1965 Cup Winners Cup winning team.

Martin Chivers May also played in European Finals for Spurs, two I believe

I see why TWTD would love this thread - it’s talking about history, right up their street!

David Fairclough May have played in one (probably as a sub).

....best to steer clear of the ‘lesser’ comps, as that includes one of the few things the binners did win - even if it was nigh-on 40 years ago.

Another one! Peter Crouch and Bellers! In the same game.

 

All dredged from my memory of course and nothing to do with wiki.

Jan Molby came on as an 84th min sub at Heysel in 1985....

Not saying he was slow but he'd been called back to the dugout from warming up after about an hour, but it took him 20 minutes to get there.

You've reminded me of John Hartson there played in a Euro final for the Gunners, although not the bigee:-

"He was a regular for the remainder of his first season, a highlight of which was scoring Arsenal's 75th-minute equaliser in the  UEFA Cup Winners' Cup Final against Real Zaragoza."1995"

How about Maurice Norman in the 1958 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Final playing for a London XI...is he the first?

 

Please God, let it be August soon.
