Female athletes are realizing that there’s no shame in being sporty & sexy simultaneously. We’ve shown that with basketball beauty Claudia Porras, and now we have further evidence - English soccer player Natasha Hughes.

UK’s SPORT MAGAZINE profiles Hughes, a 20-year-old defender for the Doncaster Rover Belles club. Natasha admits that sex sells, and she’s not afraid to prove that female footballers can look fantastic.

“I wouldn’t ever want to do anything degrading, but modeling’s definitely an area that I’m interested in - and if a photoshoot like this can help change the image of women’s football, then I think it’s a good thing.”

We think it’s a good thing, too. Where can we sign up for Doncaster season tickets?
