WE don't know. But we hope so. With news of David Beckham's retirement rocking the nation, nay, the world, speculation has been rife with suggestions as to what this could possibly mean for brand Beckham - and what the soon-to-be-former footballer will do with all that spare time.
While a lucrative five-year contract as an ambassador for Sky has already been confirmed (so he'll still be a fixture in the sporting world), we're more interested in what the fashion future may hold for the 38-year-old. A spokesperson on behalf of Beckham's management hinted at new projects on the horizon.
"Over the next year, we will see his business grow and expand. The sky is the limit really, in terms of what he can do globally," they told WWD. "Just look at what Victoria [Beckham] has done." A representative fromH&M confirmed to us this morning that he will continue to work with the high street retailer on his popular bodywear line - with a new range set to launch later this year.
"David Beckham is a great sportsman and a great style icon, and to us that is how he will be looked upon also in the future," they told us. "We are very happy with the collaboration and look forward to launching the new collection this autumn."
