David Beckham joins Disney+ for grassroots football show

The sports star, who captained England and played for clubs including Manchester United and Real Madrid, will return to the east London pitches where he played as a child.

His mission is to help a struggling side survive in their amateur league.

Disney says the team and their community will go on "an uplifting, transformative journey of a lifetime".

Beckham said: "It is fantastic to be making Save Our Squad and to shine a light on the kind of grassroots football that I experienced growing up and which gave me so much at the start of my life in the game.
