Beckham's career

According to Talk Sports, Beckham played 14 matches for PSG during the final months of his career, leading to a tearful farewell when he eventually hung up his boots in 2013.

The right winger enjoyed the sort of career that many can only dream of having, coming through the youth academy with Manchester United.

After making 388 appearances for the Red Devils, Beckham went on to enjoy four years with Real Madrid before heading stateside to join LA Galaxy in the MLS.

During his time there, Beckham enjoyed two loan spells with AC Milan, before joining Paris Saint-Germain on a five-month deal before he retired in the summer of 2013.

Beckham could buy Manchester United

Previously, Sports Brief reported on Man United legend, David Beckham reportedly preparing to buy the Old Trafford club after it was put on sale by current owners, the Glazers.

The owners, who bought the Premier League giants for £790 million back in 2005, are understood to have put the club on the market in November and want a whopping £8 billion.

In subsequent months, however, talks of a Beckham takeover have quietened down with the UK's richest man, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and a Qatari-backed bid leading the race for the club.
