FORMER Chelsea star Fabio Paim has lifted the lid on his new career in porn,
The Portuguese, 36, came through the ranks at Sporting Lisbon before a loan spell at Stamford Bridge in 2008.

Paim only played for the Blues’ reserve side during his West London stint, and failed to emulate Cristiano Ronaldo‘s Sporting exploits, despite going on to make several bold claims about the forward.
After revealing last month that he was eyeing a new career in porn, the former winger recently starred in his first film.
Speaking to Globo Esporte about his shock switch, Paim said: “Here in Portugal [the porn film] is all the rage, everyone is going crazy.
“Do you know why? Because people don’t take it the wrong way, that’s just how I am.
“On a podcast, I said that my dream was to be a pornographic actor. I got a lot of offers.
“I was on the news, I was on the front pages of newspapers… And I hadn’t done anything.
“Since everyone was talking about it, [I thought] let’s make a film. And I did. I’ll tell you one thing. It’s good to have sex and still get paid for it.”
Paim was three years below Ronaldo in Sporting’s academy.

Speaking about the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Paim said: “He grew up with me, we spent a long time together.
“I was Sporting’s number one at that time. Cristiano started to be Cristiano when he went to Manchester. Even then, nobody knew he would become what he is today.
“Today Cristiano is the king, Paim is nobody. And people say ‘oh, he’s a liar, he wasn’t better’. But the truth is that I was better than him and everyone knows that. I had more talent.
“But talent is nothing, talent is just a little bit. If you don’t have the rest, you’ll be nobody.”
Following Paim’s debut porn film, he earned rave reviews from co-star Diana Cu de Melancia.
She said: “We thought he was going to be nervous and it wouldn’t work out – but Fabio turned out to be a lion.
“He was good at football and he is good at porn. He’s going to be a success.
“I hope this film is the first of many with Paim.”
‘DREAMS COME TRUE’
He added: “It’s difficult being in front of the cameras but I did it and I think I have got talent for this.
“I got a lot of pleasure and made two dreams come true, making the film and being with two spectacular women.”
Paim has also made bold claims about Ronaldo’s Ballons d’Or awards.
He told SunSport last year: “If I speak about technique, I was better. I was a small Ronaldinho. But as we can see, it’s not the technique that leads us to wherever.
“But yes at that time I was better than Cristiano. I believe he should give me one of his Ballons d’Or!“
Paim was accused of rape in 2012 and 2015, although neither allegation went to trial.
In 2019 he was then arrested on suspicion of drugs trafficking and forced to go to prison before eventually being cleared.
