David Beckham has been spotted arriving to inspect his newly purchased £60million mega-mansion in Miami in a flashy McLaren supercar.
The soccer legend has been having fun with his wife Victoria at the stunning nine-bedroom property that keeps him close to his team, Inter Miami CF, of which he is a co-owner.
The Florida home, which was only built in 2018, boasts a host of impressive features including a chef’s kitchen, private cinema, gym, spa and pool.
And Beckham was pictured smiling for the cameras on Sunday after entering the gated estate in his McLaren 750S, which sells new for at least £240,000.
He seemed relaxed as he took in the home, which also features 13 bathrooms, an outdoor kitchen, a rooftop lounge and 124 feet of frontage on Biscayne Bay.

Earlier this month, a local real estate source claimed that the Beckhams’ offer on the property had been accepted and that they plan to move in early next year.
The Beckhams have had a base in Florida for years and also spent around £18 million on a five-bedroom penthouse in central Miami in 2020.
The couple already have a property portfolio that includes a £31 million terraced house in London’s Holland Park and a £12 million country property in the Cotswolds.
José Lambiet, a long-time celebrity columnist, told the Mail earlier this month: “I don’t think people necessarily remember that David Beckham was a football player.”
“He is now considered a man of society, and owning the football team has made him a stalwart in South Florida.
“Miami is a place where he and Victoria can be comfortable because people are used to seeing famous faces here; there are hundreds of celebrities.”
It is understood that the entire Beckham family had already visited the property before Beckham’s latest visit, with a source saying “they all love it”.
They added: ‘Although it is David who has the work connection in Miami, the impression from the estate agents is that Victoria has been pushing for them to move.

“What we’ve heard is that he wants to have a kind of salon there where he can bring together interesting, famous and rich people. It will be a social scene, but the idea is that he can promote his fashion and makeup brands by taking advantage of those links.
“It seems like she wants to be the Queen of Miami and take advantage of all the celebrity ties that come from the soccer club.”
Former England captain Beckham exercised an option in his contract with his former Major League Soccer team, LA Galaxy, to purchase an expansion franchise in 2014.
He launched the team in Miami in 2018, before confirming that it would be called Club Internacional de Futbol Miami or Inter Miami CF. He made his MLS debut in 2020.
The former Manchester United midfielder finished his playing career in 2013 with 718 appearances, 127 goals and 214 assists. He played 115 times for England.
