Former Real Madrid star Antonio Cassano turned down the offer of a porn shoot in favour of a move to the Chinese Super League

Italian porn actor and director Rocco Siffredi offered Cassano to shoot a porn film with him but the striker would rather score elsewhere

ANTONIO CASSANO wants to continue his footballing career as a move to the Chinese Super League looms. 

But if it was up to adult film actor and director Rocco Siffredi, Cassano would be hanging up his boots and taking his kit off rather than putting a new one on.

As reported by , the former Real Madrid man is still a Sampdoria player despite the club wanting to cancel his contract, but the striker will now likely get the chance to move to the money world of China.

It was a bizarre offer from Siffredi and whether Cassano ever seriously considered a change of career is something we will never know, but a move to the growing franchise of the CSL seems to good to turn down.

Cassano has had a colourful career to say the least, he was supposed to be the Italian promised son, the one to bring the glory days back to the nation.

He was once the most expensive teenager in the world when ex-England boss Fabio Capello paid £26m for him from Bari to take the striker to Roma at the tender age of 19 in 2001.

As revealed by SunSport back in September, Cassano burst on to the scene in 1999 when he scored an 88th minute winner for Bari against Inter Milan as he controlled a 40 yard pass with his heel, before making Laurent Blanc and Christian Panucci look like amateur defenders.

The Italian has never shied away from controversy and there has been a lot of it, most notably when he signed for Real Madrid in 2006 a stone and a half over his playing weight.

He was fined for every gram and was desperate to return to Italy with Roma, but the striker had fallen out with Francesco Totti meaning there was no route back to the capital.

A colourful player wrote a colourful autobiography and in this part many would be shocked to hear that Cassano turned down Siffredi's offer.

Cassano said: ''In Madrid I had a friend who was a hotel waiter. His job was to bring me three or four pastries after I had sex.

''He would bring the pastries up the stairs, I would escort the woman to him and he would make an exchange: he would take my girl and I would take the pastries. Sex and then food, a perfect night.''

The 34 year old has claimed to have slept with over 600 women, so perhaps his problems in Madrid were due to his very active sex life which led to tons of pastries.

The national team took a gamble on the striker for Euro 2012 and make him the main man upfront, with him scoring against the Republic of Ireland.

Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero told Cassano to get lost back in the summer and now the former Italy front man looks to finally found a move to a club where he is wanted, to see out his career.

When Cassano finally does call it a day, then who knows, perhaps we will see him again lets just hope its in a football capacity rather than something a bit too seedy to mention.
