David Beckham on his childhood love of football and fashion


Listen Later

The footballer David Beckham was cast away by Kirsty Young in 2017.

Born and raised in East London, he spent hours as a child kicking a ball around at the local park with his father. At the age of seven, he played for his first team, Ridgeway Rovers, before coming to the attention of Manchester United.

He spoke to Kirsty about how his love of football – and fashion – started at an early age.
