PSG is with Qatar, many football clubs are with Qatar, most investors are Qataris or Saudi Arabians, they have the most money for this type of stuff. Who is surprised? Why is Beckham the one who has to take the fall when most footballers have to be surrounded by Qataris in general? Be real

The tea was spilled by none other than Kanye West! Reality is that KSA, Qatar and other rentier states are acquiring sports team all over Europe (Malaga, Manchester City, PSG). That should place most football leagues under scrutiny as well as their pay checks come from their pockets now...

Does integrity have a price? I guess it does for Beckham 

Not sure he really needed £150M. A nice move now would be to donate this to pro-LGBT and human rights foundations.

The first thing DB should have done after accepting the deal is donating, let's see how this unfolds.

This is what puts me off with Victoria.

Bangs on about pride and the gays being a massive part of the Spice Girls fanbase, yet doesn't say a word about her husband's deals with an event based in a country that is rife with homophobia.

As for David, he comes across as fake af.

With all due respect to your comment, us (Americans) live in a country that kill trans people by the hundreds yearly out of pure homophobia and have celebrities like Chappelle say terrible things on comedy specials and have celebrities tell other gay celebrities to kill themselves on social media. 

Like the western world really needs to get a grip on pointing fingers. Homophobia, Transphobia, xenophobia and bigotry is a world wide thing.
