'Beckham wishes he could play for Spurs!' - Pochettino's men impress Man Utd icon in new stadium

The ex-England captain was in attendance as Tottenham eased to a 4-0 win over Crystal Palace and made a post-match revelation to an Argentine coach

David Beckham has told Mauricio Pochettino that he wishes he could have still been playing to turn out for the Argentine at Tottenham’s new stadium.

The former England captain enjoyed a glittering career at the very top of the game, taking in iconic spells at the likes of Manchester United, Real Madrid and the LA Galaxy.

He is, however, a London native and spent time within Spurs’ youth system before heading to Old Trafford and forming part of the fabled Class of ’92.
