This is why Beckham "donated" his wages to a children's charity

Fuckin' greedy bastard:

Days after David Beckham announced he was to donate his wages from his new club to a French charity, it has emerged that he might earn millions more than his pay packet from shirt sales.

By giving his salary to charity, the former England captain, 37, who joined French club Paris Saint Germain (PSG) on 31 January, will not have to pay the 75 percent top tax rate on income that is being introduced by Francois Hollande's socialist government next year.

However, experts believe that potential earnings from sales of his new number 32 shirt could dwarf his £3 million wage, with merchandise sales only subject to a 30 percent merchandise tax, reports The Sun.

It is believed that Beckham will play only a handful of games during his five-month contract with his new club, and will have to spend three weeks regaining match fitness.

Brands expert Professor Jean-Noel Kapferer believes that his presence will significantly boost PSG's profile worldwide, and that thousands, particularly in the lucrative Asian and US markets, will flock to buy his replica strip, which costs £3.50 to make but retails at £96.

PSG recently sealed a five-year £110 million sponsorship deal with Emirates Airlines.

Beckham is also likely to earn millions promoting the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, with PSG having recently been bought by the investment arm of the wealthy Gulf state. The footballer is set to play in the Qatar Stars League later this year.

He'd probably skin a turd for 2 bob

I dont think that's the issue. The issue is with the way his PR people have used the media to make it appear this is a selfless act and he is not making money out of the deal. Wouldnt supprise me if the charity he donates his wage to use it to buy beckham psg shirts for homeless kids!

Most sales go to the clubs Kelly,
Becks just wants to pay the 30% tax rather than 70%,but it's the way the spin drs make it sound like he's a saint

You might call him greedy but he has a few good causes going.

He is one of the most popular men in the world, possibly the only guy Muslims wouldn't kill.

They say that you could show his face to every village and hamlet in every country in the world and they would know who it was.

Football and sport speaks to people, his face is the face of mainstream sports like football.

I bet muslims fap to his beautiful androgynous image and his suave voice.


Charmed, I'm sure.
