David Beckham's oldest son, Brooklyn, is apparently a pretty good
player himself. He's earned a youth contract from a big club in
England, but it's not Manchester United. He has signed with Arsenal.
The Daily Star is reportingthat Brooklyn snubbed offers from United
and Chelseato sign with Arsenal, leaving David's former club in the
cold.
It's not entirely surprising, however, that the 15-year-old picked the Gunners.
The Beckham kids have been part of Arsenal for years, with 12-year-old
Romeo currently playing for their under-13 team and nine-year-old Cruz
on the under-10 squad. The kids have also attended their fair share of
Arsenal matches with David -- the club is in London and David is
friends with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.
"Arsenal realize he can be a huge talent," an Arsenal source told the
Star. "They have seen that potential and protected their asset.
"The club has signed him, fending off interest from Manchester United
and Chelsea in the meantime. Next summer we may see him sign a
big-money deal and with Arsenal."
At this point, it's almost scary how much Brooklyn is like his dad.
He was modeling just two weeks ago and now he is signing with a
Premier League team.
