The most recognizable athlete in the world (according to the LA Galaxy website), Beckham has agreed to a five-year deal to play for the Galaxy. The deal to bring Beckham to America is thought to be the biggest in sporting history: The Galaxy will pay him at least $32.5 million, and up to $250 million over five years in a profit-sharing arrangement.
Beckham is celebrated around the world for his match winning skills as a player in addition to his overall contributions to clubs Real Madrid, Manchester United and England.
But clearly to me, the most exciting element of this transformative moment in U.S. soccer history (earmuffs, Pele)....... is the arrival of a one Victoria Beckham ("Posh Spice") to the United States, that will be documented in a one hour special airing tonight at 8pm EST on NBC entitled "Victoria Beckham: Coming to America."
For your viewing pleasure, a clip of the show:
