Beckham is a co-owner of Inter Miami. The club played their first season in the MLS last year. Miami had signed goalscorer Gonzalo Higuain and French world champion Blaise Matuidi, among others. Nevertheless, the prominently strengthened team was eliminated in the first round of the play-offs.
Beckham has already signed an old acquaintance as a new coach for the upcoming 25th season of the MLS, starting in mid-April: he once played with Phil Neville, most recently coach of the English women’s national team, at Manchester United.
