- Former captain a paid ambassador for Qatar World Cup
- ‘I’m so disappointed, we have put him on a pedestal’
The England national team’s largest LGBTQ+ supporters’ group has suggested that David Beckham should no longer be considered a great ally or placed on a pedestal after becoming a paid ambassador for the Qatar World Cup.
Di Cunningham, the co-founder of the Three Lions Pride group, said she was disappointed in Beckham’s decision to accept a deal – reported to be worth £150m – given that Qatari law criminalises same-sex relationships.
