Beckham's Business Booms with £38.5m Payday

Sir David Beckham has earned an impressive £38.5 million in payouts following the 2026 World Cup.

The former England captain's business, DRJB Holdings, saw significant growth with profits rising to almost £50 million, a 46% increase from the previous year.

This growth was attributed to major advertising partnerships secured ahead of the tournament, including deals with Bank of America, McDonald's, Verizon, and PepsiCo's Lay's brand.

As a result, shareholders received payouts totalling £38.9 million, followed by a special dividend payment of £46.6 million after the end of the financial year.
