Days ahead of the Brexit referendum, former England captain David Beckham on Tuesday revealed he will support that Britain remains in the European Union.
The 41-year-old shared a photo of himself with former France footballer Eric Cantona during their time together at Manchester United in an Instagram post.
While Beckham in his post said that Britain will always be "great" no matter what the result of Thursday’s referendum is, he chose to give his view on the Brexit debate.
