Declan Rice's £105 million move from West Ham to Arsenal is now all but confirmed, and RTÉ raised eyebrows by using footage of him playing for the Republic of Ireland in a Six One News segment.

The national broadcaster has been under fire recently in light of the ongoing pay scandal, however, the sports department's use of footage from Rice's three Ireland caps went viral.

Joe Stack's news report on the move was standard, and he did not mention Rice's controversial switch of allegiance, but viewers loved it and the footage quickly went viral.
