SMITTEN WITH ROMEO
INTER Miami coach Phil Neville believes David Beckham’s son Romeo can forge a career in professional football following his debut in Florida.
Romeo Beckham played in his first professional game on Sunday after starting for Inter Miami’s sister team Fort Lauderdale CF. The 19year-old played 79 minutes in a 2-2 draw with South Georgia Tormenta FC and impressed Inter Miami boss
Neville despite having only 19 touches in the match. “I thought he did really well,” Neville said. “The measure of his performance was he was planned to play 45 minutes, and he played nearly 80 minutes because he is a boy that is hungry. “He has got a lot of pressure and expectations on his shoulders, but what he has got is he has got his feet firmly on the ground. “He has all the attributes to make it in professional football.”
