David Beckham is said to be in talks with streaming giants Netflix and Amazon about a new series documenting his extraordinary life.

The 45-year-old former England, Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder was reportedly inspired to make a show about himself following the critically-acclaimed Netflix series The Last Dance, which documents the career of NBA superstar Michael Jordan.

"It's something David is excited about and has wanted to do for a while. The film will feature new content and archive footage," a source told The Sun.

"It's going to be about David's life post-football, especially the creation of his new team in Miami, but will have some personal content too.

"Interest in his life and family is huge. Everyone has high hopes for this."

Beckham's MLS side Inter Miami have suffered a terrible debut season, losing all five of their competitive matches to date.
