“Even David Beckham Stays Humble”- Inter Miami Owner Left Long Lasting Impression on the Former Teammate

The quality of David Beckham on the pitch is well-known. However, his influence outside of it has been key in signing superstars like Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba. While the Englishman had his fair share of controversies as a player, that doesn’t paint a clear picture of his qualities as a person. Recently, one of his ex-teammates spoke on the kind of person Beckham was, and it not might be what you expected.

The upcoming season is hugely significant for Inter Miami. David Beckham and his team are on the lookout for the best talents. Expectations are high and there is a feeling that this could be the season where Inter Miami competes for the big titles.

Ex-teammate details the ‘big impression’ David Beckham had on him

Following his AC Milan spell, David Beckham joined PSG in 2013, where he met Lucas Moura. At the time, Moura was not a ‘huge superstar’. Yet Beckham seems to have made a strong impression on him. In a recent interview, the former Tottenham man said that he first expected Beckham to be arrogant and behave like a superstar. However, the truth was quite different. He revealed, “Beckham was so shy. He barely said anything. He would arrive quietly, settle down, and just work. No fuss. That made a big impression on me, especially since I was so young because it taught me how to behave. When even David Beckham stays humble like that, why shouldn’t you?”.  

The Brazilian winger also added that he and David Beckham became good friends. Currently playing at Sao Paulo, there have been rumors of him leaving for LAFC. However, Moura has stayed put. Perhaps he could be joining his ‘good friend’ at Inter Miami. Regardless of Moura’s joining, it is evident that there will be some new faces at Inter Miami, with one particular Croatian name picking up a lot of steam.
