Beckham came to fame playing for Manchester United, England's best supported club in the English Premier League. The highest profile domestic soccer league in the world. He made his United debut at 17 in the European Champions League but came to prominence at 19 when on the first day of the 1996/97 season he scored a spectacular goal from his own half of the pitch against Wimbledon.

United won 6 premier league titles, 2 FA Cup finals and a European Championship while Beckham was at the club. He is also England's most capped outfield player with 115 caps. He went on to play for Real Madrid and AC Milan two of Europe's highest profile clubs before moving to LA Galaxy and coming to prominence in America.

But he is also renowned for his good looks and married to former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham. The Beckham's have built a brand around themselves and deliberately court fame. It's likely this is the reason Beckham and United parted company when he fell out of favour with boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
