DAVID BECKHAM has named the dream five-a-side team he would call on to beat son Romeo and his mates.
Golden Balls played with a huge catalogue of stars during his decorated playing career.
Still in love with the beautiful game, Beckham possesses a little pitch in his garden.
In the recent Netflix docu-series about his life, the 48-year-old suggested that his son Romeo, 21, uses the pitch more than he does.
Romeo is a professional footballer himself, having signed for Brentford B from Inter Miami earlier this year.
The youngster wants to take his dad on at fives, but the Manchester United and Real Madrid legend would not take the assignment lightly.

Asked how often he still kicks a ball, Beckham said: “Romeo comes out here all the time.
“He wants a match between my mates and his mates. He said: ‘Who would you invite?’.
“And I said: ‘Well, maybe I’d get Gary [Neville] round. And he was like ‘Okay’.
“Then I said ‘Well I could probably get Roberto Carlos to come over, and maybe Ronaldo, he would step over.

“Maybe [Luis] Figo, maybe [Zinedine] Zidane].’ And he was like: ‘Well that’s not fair! Why would you do that?’.
“And I would be like ‘Well, because I’m gonna win. We’re gonna win!’ I’m not letting his mates beat us!”
Shortly after, the proposition of the game was put to Portuguese icon Figo, who cheekily replied: “Against his kids? I would kill them! The kids!”
