Romeo Beckham: Brentford B complete loan signing of David Beckham’s son from Inter Miami | Football News

Brentford have completed the loan signing of David Beckham’s son Romeo from Inter Miami until the end of the season.

The 20-year-old, the second eldest son of the former England captain, will represent the club’s B-team squad after training with the west Londoners’ reserve team following the end of the 2022 MLS season.

A right winger, like his father, Beckham joined Fort Lauderdale CF in 2021 before being named Inter Miami II. Romeo’s father, David, launched the Inter Miami team at the start of the 2020 MLS season.

The midfielder played six minutes for Inter Miami’s first team in a pre-season friendly with Barcelona in July last year.

Before playing football in the United States, Beckham was part of Arsenal’s academy in 2014 before leaving the set-up after a year.

“We’ve really liked Romeo since he came to us,” said Brentford B head coach Neil MacFarlane.

“He came to us from Inter Miami with the intention of working with us during the close season.

“I like his standard and the way he conducts himself off and on the pitch. He has been able to get fitter and fitter during his time with us and that puts him in a good place to move forward after joining on loan.

“He is very technical, and he is someone who can move the ball quickly and cross. He is also a great finisher and has the ability to play in several positions for us, which is also exciting.

“I think it’s a testament to us as a club, and as a B team, that Inter Miami asked us to work together and trusted us to work with them to help them develop.”
