Romeo Beckham made his debut for Brentford B-team on Tuesday night after David Beckham‘s son joined The Bees on loan from his father’s MLS side Inter Miami until the end of the season – and here is his career profiled, so far.
Beckham, now 20, has spent two years in the Inter Miami academy. It comes after a brief spell with Arsenal’s academy when he was much younger. Now, after training with Brentford, he has come in loan until the summer.
On Tuesday night, Brentford’s second string played a friendly against ninth-tier London side Erith & Belvedere. Beckham came on after 55 minutes during a 3-2 away win – with his famous Father in attendance.
Beckham impressed. He came close to scoring moments after coming on with a header, and then hit the bar later on. A good start, but does Beckham have a chance of a permanent deal – and how has his career gone so far?
Romeo Beckham career profiled after he made Brentford debut
It is unclear how long Beckham’s middle son of three – of course, Beckham also has a daughter, named Harper Seven – is contracted to at Inter Miami. But the youngster, who is obviously a right-winger, clearly has talent.
Enough to break into Arsenal’s academy back in 2014, when he was 12 years old. He has been a regular of late for Inter Miami’s second string but has not won his senior debut under Phil Neville. That is, despite his impressive stats.
Clocking up 26 games for Inter Miami’s reserve side, he has scored two goals but laid on an eye-catching 10 assists. Brentford have made it clear this is not a publicity stunt – they see potential in him. There could be a deal done.
Even first-team manager Thomas Frank has stated such. He says that all players on loan at Brentford have a chance of signing a permanent contract. The chances of seeing him in the first team is unlikely, but Beckham could sign.
