Beckham finally realized his jazz dream, and missed his honor due to tax avoidance storm 14 years ago

English football legend Beckham is about to usher in another peak honor in his career. According to authoritative sources, Beckham's name has appeared on the upcoming list of birthday awards by King Charles III of England, and he will be awarded the title of jazz.

Beckham, 50, has long been a household name for football idol. Not only is he famous for his precise "Bai's Arc", he also played 115 games in the Three Lions battle robe and served as the captain of the national team for more than 5 years. Fans still cannot forget that he won the buzzer-beating free kick worth a thousand gold in the 2001 World Cup qualifiers, which directly sent England to the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup. At the club level, Beckham's career is also brilliant. He won numerous honors including the Champions League with Manchester United. Since then, he has played for Real Madrid, AC Milan, Los Angeles Galaxy and Paris Saint-Germain, and has attracted great attention wherever he goes.

As early as 2003, Beckham was awarded the Official Medal for his contribution to football. His desire for the title of sir was well known for years. In 2011, he was regarded as a popular candidate for helping London successfully bid for the 2012 Olympics, but ultimately failed to do so because he was involved in a tax avoidance storm involving many celebrities.

The award of this medal is a further recognition of Beckham's football achievements, charity and contributions to British society. Since 2005, Beckham has served as the UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, committed to helping children in distress around the world. In 2024, he became the ambassador of the Kings Foundation, which focuses on the field of environmental and sustainability education.

In December last year, the Beckhams and his wife were invited to attend the state banquet hosted by King Charles III for the first time. This high-standard courtesy was regarded by the outside world as the weather vane for which they were about to receive the highest recognition of the royal family. Now, the jazz dream of this football heartthrob has finally come true, marking another glorious turn from a green superstar to a social philanthropist.
