David Beckham and Gary Neville are part of a new ownership group at League Two club Salford City.
The club announced the former Manchester United stars were part of a consortium which also includes a US-based businessman, Declan Kelly, and Lord Mervyn Davies.
Neville said: “I am passionate about Salford City. This is a unique partnership with a diverse range of minds and expertise, held together by a love of football.
“Football will come first, however it’s critical that we drive the club towards sustainability in the next four to five years.
“I can’t wait for the next part of this journey.”

Beckham, who last week turned 50, added: “I grew up in Salford….I have such fond memories of my time living there and the place and its people played such an important part in my early life in football.
“Salford City is at the heart of its community….it has a rich history and I am delighted to be a part of the next chapter.”
Beckham first invested in Salford in January 2019, joining former ‘Class of 92’ team-mates Neville, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Nicky Butt as a shareholder.
