SINGAPORE - David Beckham’s been busy post-retirement – he’s currently on a week-long tour in China as ambassador to the Chinese Super League.
And, oh, he’s also posting selfies on his brand new Sina Weibo account.
The 38-year-old’s posts range from photos of himself looking dapper in a private jet – “Landed in Nanjing, a city I have never been to before. I’ve been told it’s 95 degrees!” – to simple observations about his trip – “Love Beijing, although not his traffic jam. Had a good day so far”.
Beckham also held a question and answer session with followers on Weibo, responding to fan queries about his trip and his favourite sports-related hobbies.
But the former England captain denied reports that he’s been approached by NFL (America’s National Football League) scouts.
“That is not true. In terms of rugby, I think I may be too old now,” he posted in reply to a fan’s question.
Even though the football superstar’s only been microblogging for two days, he already has close to half a million followers.
Beckham’s also following six other Weibo users at the moment, including the Chinese Super League and his wife Victoria Beckham, who has more than 1.3 million followers.
