David Beckham Wife: Meet Victoria Beckham

Written by David Wilson — 0 Views

Former British professional footballer, David Beckham was born on May 2nd, 1975 at Whipps Cross University Hospital in Leytonstone, London, United Kingdom.

He was born to Sandra Georgina and David Edward Alan “Ted” Beckham. His father gave him his middle name “Robert” in honor of his favorite footballer, Bobby Chalton.

His sisters are Joanne Louise, his younger sister, and Lynne Georgina, his older sister. He went to Chingford County High School, which is located on Nevin Drive.

His parents were ardent Manchester United fans who frequently drove the 200 miles (320 km) from London to Old Trafford to watch the side play at home.

In a talent competition, he gained the opportunity to train with Barcelona and attended one of Bobby Charlton’s Soccer Schools in Manchester. He was a member of the Ridgeway Rovers, a neighborhood youth group led by his father, Stuart Underwood, and Steve Kirby.

For a 1986 match against West Ham United, Beckham served as the Manchester United mascot. Young Beckham participated in trials for Leyton Orient, Norwich City, and Tottenham Hotspur while attending their school of excellence, but he never played for the team.

In 1990, Beckham won the Under-15 Player of the Year award while playing for Brimsdown Rovers’ youth club for two years. He went to Bradenton Preparatory Academy as well, but on his 14th birthday, he signed schoolboy forms with Manchester United and on July 8th, 1991, he signed a contract for the Youth Training Scheme.

Beckham has been praised as one of the greatest and most identifiable midfielders of his generation as well as one of the best set-piece specialists of all time. He is known for his variety of passing, crossing skills, and bending free-kicks as a right winger.

At the age of 17, Beckham made his first-team debut for Manchester United, the start of his professional club career. He won the FA Cup twice with United, the Premier League six times, and the UEFA Champions League in 1999.

After that, he spent four seasons with Real Madrid, where his last season saw him capture the La Liga title. Beckham agreed to a five-year deal with Major League Soccer team LA Galaxy in July 2007.

On September 1, 1996, at the age of 21, Beckham

made his international football debut for England. During his six years as captain, he received 58 caps.

He played in 115 matches over the course of his career, including three FIFA World Cups (1998, 2002, and 2006) and two UEFA European Championships (2000, 2004). He retained the outfield player appearance record for England until 2016.

Beckham, a global football ambassador, is revered as a symbol of British culture. He finished second in the Ballon d’Or competition in 1999, finished second again in the FIFA World Player of the Year voting (1999 and 2001), and was chosen by Pelé to the FIFA 100 list of the finest active players in the world in 2004.

He was admitted to the Premier League Hall of Fame in 2021 and the English Football Hall of Fame in 2008. Since 2005, he has served as a UK representative for UNICEF, and in 2015, he established 7: The David Beckham UNICEF Fund.
