UNITED legend David Beckham was back in Manchester this weekend – sporting a new hairdo.

The former Red joined Coronation Street stars, the Real House- wives of Cheshire and fellow exfootball­ers as he headed to the glitzy launch of new tiki bar Mahiki.

David, sporting his new long beachy blonde hairdo, was supporting his Class of ‘92 best mate Gary Neville, who has brought Mahiki to Manchester with the London bar’s founder Piers Adam.

Naturally, David’s appearance inside the new basement nightspot caused something of a frenzy as guests clamoured to chat to the United and England icon.

Becks, wearing a casual denim jacket, jeans and tan boots, certainly seemed to enjoy the vibe of the new club.

The M.E.N. spotted Becks looking very happy when some Manc anthems started to play at the club – including the Happy Mondays’ Step On and the Stone Roses’ Fools Gold.

VIP guests at the bash included Real Housewives of Cheshire stars Stacey Forsey and Nermina PietersMek­ic, Celebrity Big Brother star Calum Best, and footy stars Wes Brown and Chris Smalling.

Coronation Street was well represente­d at the bash as the soap’s stars were celebratin­g the birthday of Mikey North inside the basement bar.

Fashion icon Becks had earlier caused a stir in Manchester when he headed to his old stomping ground at Old Trafford to watch his team thrash Crystal Palace 4-0.

He was joined by his best mate Dave Gardner at both the match and at Mahiki – where they also partied with fellow Class of ‘92 footballer Nicky Butt.
