There's nothing like a bit of 90s football nostalgia to boost your enthusiasm for the sport after a long international break, especially when that nostalgia is related to Kevin Keegen's Newcastle entertainers.
Tino Asprilla was one of the icons of that Newcastle era and the 43-year-old Columbian striker is in the news today as he has been offered a job by a Columbia company that makes porn films. Santa Latina wrote an open letter to Asprilla on their website offering him the approximate equivalent of €7,500 for one week's work with them.
Translation via Goal.com:
Dear Faustino Asprilla.
For years [we] have followed your successful career, which has made you a national icon invaluable in Colombia.
We are convinced that the lifestyle you lead and the media controversy it causes is vital so we dared to make the following proposal.
As you know, [Santa Latina] is an adult entertainment site, and that's why we offer you 20 million pesos for a week as a porn actor.
This is a unique offering, which awaits your prompt response. We are convinced that with a little training you could exploit another talent all of Colombia knows you have.
He'd never be a patch on our own Greg Jacob.
