Biography
Born in a small village, Michael Clermont grew up far from the big cities and modern society. It was quite a surprise when he chose at young age to join the air force instead of helping out on the farm of his parents. Although his parents did not like his choice, they supported him as he left the elderly home at 14 years old. At the air force, he was immediately qualified as unsuited as intense medical tests proved that he suffered from an unknown genetically transferred disease which causes hair-loss, smelly feet and drives cats crazy.
Low on cash and far from home, he reacted to an advertisement in a newspaper and applied for a job as a background actor in a movie. However, it appeared to be an adult movie, where he was not so much in the background, but more on his back on the ground. Therefore he ran from the stage and also gave up his idea of becoming an actor. Several small jobs and illusions later, the now 23 year old Michael eventually ended up at Lokomotiv Veltem Back-on-Track where he was immediately noticed for his goalscoring ability. He finally retired at 38 years of age and was immediately inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Michael is single and has three dogs and a goldfish, the latter named Flipper. Currently he is employed as an infomercial host.
