David Beckham’s net worth in 2022

Thinking about soccer royalty? Think about David Beckham. The man was a magician with a ball at his feet. No one, I repeat, no one has the vision and the long-range passing ability that Beckham possessed. Oh, and those corner kick deliveries! One might as well just spend hours seeing Beckham cross the ball to his teammates. And if that was not enough, add the tag of ‘Dead Ball Specialist’ to his name because of his free-kicks. No true soccer fan can ever forget THAT free-kick against Greece, which sent England to the World Cup.

But all fanboying aside, Beckham became a true global sporting icon. David won everything in the prime of his career- Premier League, Spanish League, FA Cup, UEFA Champions League. In his final seasons, David earned around $255million with the LA Galaxy and $50million with the French club, PSG. As of 2022, Beckham has an estimated net worth of about $450million.

P.S.- don’t know about bending it like him, but I’d say: Earn it like Beckham.
