Former Liverpool and Leicester goalkeeper responds to rumours he’s now a porn star

Clearing it up

If you don’t remember the name Pegguy Arphexad, we’re not really going to hold it against you.

The former Liverpool and Leicester stopper was not exactly a prolific starter in his footballing career.

Having made just two appearances for the Reds and 21 for the Foxes, Arphexad is not what you would call a household name.

The former French U21 international faded into obscurity after retiring in 2005, following an unsuccessful stint with Marseille, but he would regularly jump back into our consciousnesses with the rumour that he had turned to the world of porn acting.

“Look, this is a bad rumour,” Arphexad told the Leicester Mercury this week. “It’s been going round a long time. One English guy wrote on the internet years and years ago that I was doing this and now people say to me: ‘Hey, are you making porn films?’

“I haven’t made any porn films, okay. I don’t do that. I work for a sports insurance company. That’s what I do. Put it in your paper – I don’t do porn films, just insurance, okay?”

That’s that then.
