Ex-Chelsea Player, Fabio Paim Becomes Pοrnstar, Claims He Had ‘More Talent’ Than Ronaldo

Fabio Paim, former Chelsea player and once a teammate of Portuguese superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo, has revealed that he’s now working in the adult film industry.

The 36-year-old ex-Portuguese winger started his football career alongside Ronaldo in Sporting Lisbon’s academy and had a brief stint on loan at Chelsea in 2008.

Speaking in an interview with Globo Esporte via Record, Fabio Paim revealed that he began his new career as a pornstar earlier this month.

He said, “Here in Portugal [the news about the pornographic 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.’

Despite a promising start in football, Paim never reached the heights expected of him, retiring in 2018 without a single international cap, while Cristiano Ronaldo became a global icon.

He grew up with me, we spent a long time together,’ Fabio Paim explained as he reflected on his relationship with Ronaldo.

Reflecting on their careers, he claimed, “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.”

During a recent podcast, Paim even joked that Ronaldo should give him one of his Ballon d’Or trophies, noting that if he’d shared Ronaldo’s discipline, he could’ve been up there with Messi and Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo should offer me one of his Ballon d’Ors. I went to Sporting when I was seven years old, I grew up there,’ Paim said on a podcast hosted by PT Clipes.

‘They were years of glory in which I won everything I could. I didn’t reach where I could have reached, but I marked a generation. If people don’t forget it’s because I marked them.

‘I said when I was happy that I thought Cristiano Ronaldo could offer me a Ballon d’Or. But it was with humility. If I had half of Cristiano’s head, it wouldn’t be him and Messi.

‘It would be me, him, and Messi and maybe he wouldn’t have won the Ballon d’Ors that he has. Maybe one of them was mine.”

In response, Ronaldo clapped back on Instagram, saying, “Wtf??? Who is this guy?”

KanyiDaily recalls that Cristiano Ronaldo recently clinched multiple awards at the Globe Soccer Awards ceremony held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).
