In 2014, Beckham joined Arsenal's Academy but was released the following year. After his release, he admitted that he no longer wished to pursue a career in football, instead taking up tennis training with Andy Murray. However, in 2020, Beckham announced that he was looking to return to football after a five-year absence. In support of the decision, his father replaced the tennis court he had previously built at the family home with a football pitch.
