Following his nomination to the prestigious New Year’s Honors List, David Beckham looks to be in line for knighthood in 2014 — assuming he passes a scrupulous examination from the HRMC. Climbing the ladder of Europe’s most illustrious football teams such as Manchester United, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain F.C., as well as a high-profile move to the LA Galaxy, has seen Becks achieve many of his childhood dreams. Receiving this potential knighthood, on the other hand, would certainly be a lifetime achievement that trumps all of his previous accolades.
