Football-loving celebrities bore the arse off me. Ooh, there’s Robbie Williams gurning in a Port Vale shirt! Oh, and look at Ant & Dec swigging bottled beer in a sponsors’ box at St James’ Park! And, yes, Ralf Little, you’re a half-decent defender (by celeb standards) but stick to what you do best – hang on, what exactly is it you do best? Turning up for celebrity five-aside tournaments, it seems.

Anyway, the 10 celebs listed below get my respect because they actually had trials at a proper professional club. Some of the names you’ll know already; some will come as a big surprise…

Julio Iglesias (Real Madrid) - 
Probably the most impressive celeb footballer, because he played in goal for Real Madrid. Aged 20, the crooner was involved in a car crash which ended his career as a goalie.

    Two rumours of worthy note are Paul John Paul II’s footballing days, and existentialist, Albert Camus. Naturally, I’m far too lazy to check.
