Speaking on the First We Feast YouTube channel, Beckham reminisced about his ultimate moment with Zidane, saying:

“I think the ultimate moment with me and Zizou has to be the last training session before his last game I’m sat in the changer room and he walks in and I’m sat there I’m getting changed and he all of a sudden I see him out the corner of my eye getting up and he’s walking towards me and I’m like, I start sweating.”

“And Zizou doesn’t say much, you know, he’s a man of, you know, few words. He sits down and he said, David, I just want to say it’s been a pleasure playing with you for the last few years.

“And I was like… I literally… He then went in to get treatment and I jumped up, I ran outside, I took my phone and I was like… A couple of my mates I said you’re never gonna guess what just happened I called my dad I was like that Zizou just said this to me so that has to be that has to be the moment.”
