ATLANTA — David Beckham says his right wrist is recovering well after having surgery to repair an old injury he sustained during his playing career.

Beckham wore a sling to elevate his heavily bandaged right forearm, while in attendance Sunday, June 29, for the FIFA Club World Cup match between Inter Miami, a team he co-owns, and Paris Saint-Germain, the last club he played for in 2013.

“It’s an old injury that needed surgery, but it’s all good,” Beckham said in an interview with DAZN before the match. “It’s all good.”

News of Beckham’s surgery was first shared in social media posts by his wife, Victoria, in the last week.

As for the Inter Miami-PSG match at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Beckham said the contest raised some emotions.

“To be honest, it’s quite an emotional match for me. Obviously, the team that we own is playing probably the best team in the world right now. And who would’ve thought?” Beckham said.

“For me to finish my career in Paris, the way I did with this club, was very special. I only spent six months there, but it felt like 16 years.”

Beckham started his career with Manchester United, winning six Premier League titles with the English club. He also played for Real Madrid, the L.A. Galaxy in Major League Soccer, and AC Milan before his final year with Paris Saint-Germain.

He played 115 matches for England, including 59 games as captain. He is the only English player to score in three different World Cups.

Beckham, 50, is arguably the most famous sportsman in England’s history. He will be awarded a knighthood by King Charles III.
