David Beckham debuts shorter hair in Miami

He has caught plenty of attention with his longer locks in recent weeks – having returned to the look he became known for during his younger days as a footballer.

However it seems David Beckham has already braved the shave, as he arrived in Miami Beach on Sunday with cropped hair once again. 

The former Manchester United star, 42, was spotted with the fresh trim as he stripped shirtless and relaxed by his hotel pool, during a winter break without his family across the pond. 

  

David looked in good spirits as he relaxed by the pool in a salmon T-shirt and bright red swim shorts, with a refreshing drink in hand. 

Later heating up in the blazing sunshine, the sportsman removed his top to work on his tan – flashing his impressively muscular and tattooed frame to all.

Most noticeable however was David’s fresh trim, having caught attention with his longer locks and man bun in recent weeks.

Despite the sweltering heat, the former footballer still sported his beloved green beanie hat and finished his look with trendy Wayfarer sunglasses as he enjoyed some respite across the pond.  

David is believed to be in Miami to launch his long-awaited Major League Soccer franchise at a press conference on Monday.

It was announced earlier this week that the former England captain is to host a press conference alongside MLS commissioner Don Garber – with a press release revealing ‘an important announcement on the future of soccer in Miami will be made’.

Miami has long been identified as a potential MLS expansion area but the Beckham-backed venture to take a team there has been beset by years of difficulties over the location of a possible new stadium. 

Beckham, who won 115 England caps, had an option to purchase an MLS expansion franchise included in his contract when he joined Los Angeles Galaxy in 2007. MailOnline has contacted his representatives for comment. 

The former footballer has jetted to the States this week, as he was seen enjoying a dinner and evening of pizza making with his brood and their close friends, the Ramsay family, on Thursday.

The Beckhams and the Ramsays, who are the kids of TV chef Gordon, often spend the holidays together in both London and LA.

However the chef recently confirmed their children would only ever remain good friends, stating to TV Magazine: ‘Three girls and a boy, and three boys and a girl – you’d be amazed at the synergy. We’ve promised that no one dates anybody, and so far…’

Meanwhile Gordon and his wife Tana, 42, are parents to Megan, 18, twins Jack and Holly, 17, and daughter Matilda, 15. 

Continuing on the cringe-worthy discussion, he offered an example: ‘If Holly said: ‘Yeah, Brooklyn and I’… it would be: ‘No, Holly.” 

David is known to be close to his kids, and will no doubt visit his oldest son Brooklyn while in the States – after he relocated to New York City in September, to study photography at university.
