From sex-mad Ronaldinho to Man Utd trio, British newspaper reveals footballers who romped with porn stars
Rich and famous footballers are known for their fast and often lavish lifestyles – and some of them have taken their love lives in a particularly kinky direction.
Footballers have long dated models and celebrities – but a select few went the, umm, extra mile…
Players often inspire fans with their talent on the pitch and even activism, yet their complicated love lives rarely stay out the headlines too.
According to UK newspaper, Daily Star, some have allegedly sought a bit more excitement by hitting it off with porn stars during relationships or one-night stands.
“Occasionally these adventures even help us learn more about our favourite stars”, reports Daily Star.
The newspaper has taken a look through the archives and found the players who sought something a little bit more kinky than your average footballer…
As recently as this year, a Hungarian porn star said she had provided escort services to three unnamed Manchester United players.
Shona River, 28, revealed in April this year on the How To Be A Pornstar podcast of her experience where one player supposedly took back the €200 he paid as he expected her to work for free.
She said: “They expect you to be with them because they are famous, but they don’t want to actually date you.
“Just because they have a lot of money, it doesn’t mean they want to be generous.
“It was probably hurting his ego that he was paying me.”
Danny Mountain
Ex-Southampton youngster Danny Mountain was once a teenager hoping to become a top professional footballer before finding fame and fortune as a porn star.
His knee injury aged 16 ended his dreams and he turned to carpentry, but his career ended up taking another bizarre turn three-years later.
Mountain had been dating a Page Three girl who was considering getting into the adult filming industry but passed on the details of the audition to the ex-pro when she turned it down herself.
He went on to become a huge star in the field, making 600 films and marrying porn actresses Eva Angelina (2007-2009) and Mia Malkova (2014-2018).
Ronaldinho and Mario Balotelli
Taking it even further back to the Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho’s AC Milan days, the cheerful midfield magician reportedly dated Italian Porn star Sara Tommasi after they “went out together” and “had fun”.
Tomassi admitted to a two-month relationship with the World Cup winner who was known for his party-loving lifestyle while in Italy.
She went on to add that Ronaldinho was a true gentleman and treated her with affection.
Tomassi said: “He’s a good guy, a really good guy, and he’s better than a girl like me could hope to meet.”
Ronaldinho was known for having a hedonistic lifestyle, which of course included lots of sex.
Ex-Manchester City and Italian star Mario Balotelli has also been linked with the actress.
It was rumoured they met through the striker’s sister, Abigail.
There is no suggestion either are still dating Tomassi

Inter Miami will be the last club Argentina captain Lionel Messi plays for, the 36-year-old forward said on Wednesday, adding he feels “a little bit scared” at the thought of the day he decides to retire.
Messi, a World Cup winner with Argentina in 2022, has a contract with the Major League Soccer side until 2025 following his arrival last summer after a spell with French champions Paris St Germain.
“Inter Miami will be my last club. I love playing football. I enjoy everything even more because I am aware that there is less and less left,” Messi told ESPN.
“I’m not ready to leave football. I’ve done this all my life, I love playing football, I enjoy training, the day-to-day, the matches… And yes, there’s always a little bit of fear that it’s all over.”
The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi is preparing with his national team to defend their Copa America title, with the tournament kicking off on June 20 in the United States.
Argentina will take on Canada in the opening match before facing Group A rivals Chile on June 25 and Peru four days later.
