David Beckham Strikes Gold: Soccer Legend Cashes In Massive Multi-Million Windfall

David Beckham generated an impressive $23.6 million pre-tax earnings from his personal business ventures last year, new financial documents reveal.

The ex-Manchester United, Real Madrid and England star has strategically built commercial partnerships following his 2013 retirement from professional football, including co-owning MLS powerhouse Inter Miami and English League Two club Salford City.

The 50-year-old's commercial empire continues expanding, featuring brand collaborations with Stella Artois and SharkNinja among his portfolio.

Financial records from The Guardian show his DRJB Holdings company experienced a remarkable 44% surge in pre-tax earnings, boosting its valuation from $36 million to $44.9 million within twelve months.

Beckham received $23.6 million in dividend payments last year, even after divesting 55% of his enterprise to American firm Authentic Brands in 2022 (Editor's note: Authentic Brands Group is the parent company of Sports Illustrated).

DRJB operates through three key sectors: commercial brand collaborations, licensing deals, and Studio 99, the production house behind Beckham's acclaimed self-titled documentary series. The studio is also developing a documentary featuring Victoria Beckham, his spouse and former Spice Girls member.

The football legend, who accumulated 839 matches across five clubs and international duty with England, received a knighthood in June during King Charles's birthday honors.
