The football star is returning to the pitches of East London for this Disney Plus doc.
Former footballer David Beckham is teaming up with Disney Plus for new show Save Our Squad – a docuseries in which the sporting legend mentors an East London under 14's team.
Returning to where his footballing career began – the Echo Premier League – Beckham agrees to help Westward Boys, who are yet to win a match, in an attempt to prevent their team's relegation.
The four-parter arrives this week and while we don't know a huge amount about the football club, Beckham has teased that they remind him of his younger self.
"I don't think I was as cheeky as most of them. I think I was more like probably Orlando, I didn't say a word," he told RadioTimes.com and other press. "I was small, I was skinnier than all of these boys, but I was from East London like them and I loved the game. So the similarities came from that really."
