What is David Beckham’s net worth? This is always a popular question given that we are talking about an authentic international star, capable of "staying afloat" even after hanging up his boots on the proverbial nail.
Before being a media personality, Beckham was an excellent footballer, a right winger like few others, capable of winning a Champions League, six Premier Leagues, and a La Liga just to mention the most important trophies.
In his career David Beckham also played in Italy: in two parts of the championship, he wore the Milan shirt, although his most significant experiences were those with Manchester United and with Real Madrid.
Londoner born in 1975, Spice Boy as he was nicknamed given his love story with the former Spice Girl Victoria Adams, at the end of his career he chose to move with his whole family to Los Angeles where, after playing with the Galaxy where he won two MLSs, he decided to become an entrepreneur.
Beckham will now be the protagonist of a docuseries on Netflix , where he will tell the story of his dizzying rise, from humble origins to global stardom.
So let’s try to do the math in David Beckham’s pocket, taking a look at what would be the net worth of the entrepreneur who in the past was one of the highest-paid footballers in the world.
How much does David Beckham earn: his net worth
During his career as a footballer, David Beckham secured handsome earnings thanks to fabulous salaries : at Real Madrid he earned 20 million dollars per season, while with Los Angeles Galaxy the check was for $6.5 million.
According to the American journalist Joe Pompliano, the former midfielder would have earned a whopping 255 million dollars during the five seasons in which he played for the Galaxy, also considering advertising agreements and shared revenues.
In 2013 at the time of his retirement from playing football, Forbes attributed to him a personal wealth equal to 47 million dollars, thanks also to the income deriving from sponsors such as Adidas, Hennes & Mauritz AB, Sainsbury, and Samsung.
In recent years, however, their earnings have risen dramatically: together with their wife Victoria, the Beckhams, according to what was reported by Cosmopolitan in June 2023 , would have a total net worth estimated at 425 million pounds (516 million US dollars).
David Beckham’s entrepreneurial activity would consequently have been even more profitable than his career as a footballer. The Englishman has always remained in the world of football being one of the owners of the Miami franchise - Lionel Messi’s current club - and having founded the proxy company Footwork Management Ltd, but he has also invested in other sectors.
David Beckham’s interest has turned to the automotive market by investing in electrification. The former British footballer purchased 10% of Lunaz shares in 2020, a British company that deals with upcycling, i.e. the creative and sometimes even innovative recycling of vehicles through their electrification.
