David Beckham is one of the most decorated soccer players in the sport's history. With Manchester United (the club he supported as a boy), he won six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, and—unforgettably—the Champions League when United claimed their famous Treble at the climax of the 1998-99 season. In also winning championships in Spain with Real Madrid, in the United States with the LA Galaxy, and in France with PSG, Beckham became the first Englishman to win league titles in four different countries. His 115 international appearances are a record for an English outfield player, and he is also the first English player to score at three World Cup finals.
