Former England football captain David Beckham is moving into
the growing world of esports as co-owner of London-based Guild Esports, who
have announced they will launch player
academies and run teams in esports such as Rocket League, Fifa and Fortnite.
"We are committed to nurturing and encouraging youth
talent through our academy systems," said the 45-year-old former Manchester
United, Real Madrid and AC Milan player, who is a co-owner of MLS team Inter
Miami. “We have a vision to set a new standard, supporting these players into
the future.”
The Financial Times reported Beckham’s stake in Guild would make
him a significant shareholder, with Guild raising some £25 million.
“David will be instrumental in helping shape the coaching
programme at our academies and we welcome his valuable mentoring as well as the
inspiration he gives the younger generation of athletes,” said Guild executive
chairman Carleton Curtis.
