A footballer who starred at Southampton's academy took a major career turn, opting to become a porn star after his football dreams faded.

The former footballer started his career at the "Saints" as a teenager and showed his loyalty to the club when he turned down transfer offers from Chelsea, West Ham and Tottenham.

Today Danny Mountain is the most famous British porn star, who receives the largest sums of money in the local industry.

This is not an easy story.

In his youth he seemed on the way to a successful career, having impressed legends such as Alan Ball and Jeff Hearst.

However, a heartbreaking knee injury ended his momentum at the age of 16, so he temporarily turned to carpentry for a living.

But then he started his relationship with a "Page 3" girl (the famous page in the "Sun" newspaper that used to advertise naked women), during which he got to meet people from the porn industry, which allowed him to brand himself on the way to a big career.

"I previously dated a girl who was on 'Page 3,'" he said, "Her agent wanted her to get into porn. She wasn't particularly enthusiastic, but he gave her the details of the audition in London, and I went. I didn't know what to expect, but I was full of confidence. At all I wasn't nervous about the sexual part. What did worry me was talking in front of the camera - I couldn't control my face because I was stressed."

Mountain's parents gave him full support during his football days, but did not know how to accept his new career.

"When I told my mum she was a bit shocked. She had the same mentality as a lot of people - she thought it was going to be sleazy. But we had serious talks about it,

"She made sure I was okay because I was only 19 but I had a lot of fun and flew around the world and she understood how happy I was. My dad is a big boy. When I told him, he just said 'go for it son!'"

Mountain, who married porn actresses Mia Malkova and Eva Angelina, insists he made the right choice when he became one of the world's highest-paid porn stars.

At the same time he continues to play football with Hollywood stars such as Vinnie Jones and Jason Statham.

"I play soccer here in Los Angeles for Vinnie Jones' Hollywood All-Stars, with Jason Statham against players like Frank LeBeouf. We go to Vinnie's house for barbecues and meet his celebrity friends. It's nice here."

On the other hand, this week another former footballer, Damien Oliver who played in the Academy of Crystal Palace, also talked in the podcast about the transition from football to the world of adult films.

According to him, this is a really not "shiny" world.

Oliver got involved as a teenager in a criminal incident that sent him to a short prison term, and since then he has not been able to return to football.

Looking for work, he did house renovations and painting, until he got an offer to participate in an adult film and was paid £150. According to him, "The filming was a nightmare, terrifying, really.

I remember the set, there was an Irish photographer there, a big guy, huge, bald, a scary man staring at us closely and taking pictures - and me with my penis exposed right in front of his face.

It was a nightmare.

I sweated there, I sweated while naked, I slipped on the couch from my sweat.

"I came to this because people knew I was good in bed with women, because I slept with a lot of girls, I was an 'actor', so they suggested to me 'keep doing it, and you'll get paid for it'. But I didn't have confidence, when I got confidence, my which is a completely different story.

"I have no doubt that if I had remained a footballer and stayed at Crystal Palace, I would be making a lot more money today.

I was also a good boxer, even with that I could have been more successful.

But I thought it would be better to be a porn actor, that would be the best.

But it's really not as good as people imagine."
