There is no doubt that David Beckham is one of the most exceptional football players in the world. Within his 20-year-long football career, he took home nineteen major trophies. His triumphs in England, Spain, USA, and France made him the very first English footballer to achieve league titles in four different countries.
His Football Legacy
At the age of 17, in 1992, Beckham joined Manchester United. Before transferring to Real Madrid, he won six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, and a UEFA Champions League with United.
After his championship victory with Real Madrid during his final year with them, Beckham took it to the next level and agreed to a five-year deal with LA Galaxy. Joining a Major League Soccer club brought a lot of opportunities for Beckham.
His football portfolio is very impressive. He was the first British football player to compete in 100 UEFA Champions League tournaments. He appeared in the field 115 times including in the 1998, 2002, and 2006’s FIFA World Cup games and 2000 and 2004’s UEFA European Championship cups.
Inter Miami CF
Beckham retired in May 2013 leaving a reputation as one of the best midfielders of all time. His phenomenal performances as a right winger also made him one of the wealthiest footballers in the world. With the amount he made during his career, he managed to get himself his own expansion team.
He originally paid a discounted amount of $25 million to own the Inter Miami CF, and the team is set to join the 2020 Major League Soccer.
Beckham Brand Holdings
In 2014, he set up the firm Beckham Brand Holdings with his long-time business associate Simon Fuller and a couple of other investors. The company oversees Victoria Beckham’s fashion business, as well as David Beckham’s expansion MLS team.
The firm has ten subsidiary undertakings such as Victoria Beckham’s large-scale, retail and electronic commerce trading, Beckham Brand Unlimited, DBrazil TV Unlimited, DB Ventures Unlimited, Miami Properties LLC, and Miami Beckham United LLC. With its current holdings, the company has earned $72.4 million and gained a $16 million fiscal 2017 profit.
Taking Full Control
Just recently, Beckham reportedly snapped up Fuller’s share on the company for $50 million putting a $150 million appraisal on his company. By buying out Fuller’s minority stake, he and Victoria obtained the full authority of Beckham Brand Holdings.
Couple Goals!
David Beckham just proved that he’s always on top of his game whether he’s in the soccer field or in the corporate industry. He and Victoria have a combined net worth of $900 million, and now that they have the full supervision on Beckham Brand Holdings, they’re much closer to becoming one of the billionaire couples.
