Former Barcelona goalkeeper Jose Manuel Pinto has left football behind to become an actor.

The 41-year-old is now quite a highly-regarded musician and music producer, with one of his tracks appearing in a new Hollywood blockbuster.

The former Barcelona man has enjoyed a successful music career following his retirement in 2014.

Pinto, who was known for his eccentric style of goalkeeping, joined Barcelona from Celta Vigo in 2008, going on to make 90 appearances for Barcelona, mostly in the Champions League and Copa Del Rey.
