We all know David Beckham scrubs
up well, but as if further evidence were needed the sporting icon has
been showing off his sense of style - both in and out of a suit – during
a recent trip to China.
The
dapper 38-year-old is currently in Beijing as part of his ambassadorial
commitment to help change the face of football across the country.
And
in what proved to be one of his first official duties since hanging up
his boots for good, Becks gave a star turn during a presentation at the
home of former revolutionary leader Soong Ching Ling shortly after
touching down in China over the weekend.
Suited and booted: David Beckham looked smart as he began the first day of his trip to China on Monday
Stylish whatever he wears: David had arrived in a
T-shirt, jeans and beanie hat before changing into a dapper suit to
kick off his ambassador duties
The former England skipper – capped
115 times by his country – was full of warm smiles for his fans after
turning up in a casual white T-shirt and baggy jeans.
The
midfielder’s hair – so often a talking point – was stylishly swept to
one side, while his short-sleeved T-shirt highlighted his vast array of
tattoos.
However, with
serious business soon at hand Becks headed off for a half-time change of
outfit – proving that he’s equally capable of turning heads in a suit.
Meet and greet: David visits Soong Ching Ling's Former Residence to donate a F-Type car to the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation
So good to be here! David looked in good spirits as he smiled and applauded while taking things in
The LA Galaxy star was full off
smiles as he arrived at the event sporting a tailored two-piece that
was tastefully complemented by a white shirt and tie.
One-time
Manchester United star Becks - who has an enormous following across
China and south-east Asia - had travelled thousands of miles to be at
the event so he could officially donate an F-type car to the China Soong
Ching Ling Foundation.
But
while he clearly remembered a change of outfit, he obviously overlooked
his razor while he was packing for the globe-circling trip, with his
grizzled facial still on show as she warmly greeted officials before
taking to the podium for a brief speech.
Dressed down arrival: David was seen arriving in Beijing just hours beforehand
Straight to work: David even started speaking to press at the airport
Former
LA Galaxy star Becks has been drafted in by The Chinese Super League to
provide a healthy image for the game following recent reports of
match-fixing.
'I am
honoured to have been asked to play such an important role at this
special time in Chinese football history,' he said in a statement at the
time, shortly after being named as ambassador.
Beckham is currently the most capped outfield player in England history.
