While playing for Paris Saint-Germain in the final months of his professional career during the 2012-13 season, Beckham was already locking down future roles working as an ambassador.
He has also been working as global ambassador for Chinese football, helping the image of the country’s game by promoting it domestically and internationally.
Beckham in formal mode is not such a rare sight. He was previously an ambassador for the 2012 London Olympics and worked with England on its flawed bid to host the 2018 World Cup, which Russia won.
