LA team nets £6m for Becks

DAVID Beckham’s multi-million pound move to the US has already paid for itself — without him even kicking a ball.

Additional revenue of £6.6million — $13.3million — has poured in to his new team Los Angeles Galaxy due to rocketing sales of shirts, season tickets and other Becks-related memorabilia.

The extra cash is already more than enough to cover the ex-England skipper’s salary for the next TWO years, soccer chiefs revealed last night.

Becks, 31, currently at Real Madrid, makes his LA debut in July.

He signed a five-year contract worth £2.75million-a-year plus a merchandise deal. It has been estimated he could walk away with £124million.

  • BECKS has been voted the world’s sexiest dad in a new poll. Hollywood babe Kate Hudson is the sexiest mum.
