There has never been a more iconic footballer than David Beckham. He is perhaps the sport's most recognisable player, adored by millions upon millions of fans in every corner of the world. Amid a playing career that took him to many of the world's biggest clubs – including Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain – Beckham made 115 international appearances, captaining England on 58 occasions. Through it all he was one of the most talked-about players of all time. a figure of intense public and private scrutiny, a celebrity on and off the pitch. But what remains for many fans are the memories of an immensely gifted winger with a wand of a right foot that produced set-pieces and deliveries of the most unique class and quality.
