Beckham: David Beckham showed off a protruding ....

He might have an impressively toned body but last week David Beckham donned a T-shirt that somehow managed to make him look a little thick around the waist.
And it seems the footballer quite likes the look, and he was seen recreating it in a black ensemble yesterday.
David, who will no doubt be winding down his football career in the coming years, tried on a beer belly for size, perhaps looking forward to retirement.

The father-of-four proudly pushed out his stomach so far that it rivaled that of Victoria's shortly before she gave birth to their daughter Harper.
And David appeared to appreciate his own joke as he rubbed his hands over his bulging stomach smiling to himself.

The footballer has been performing a special hat trick of late, donning a cap for his daily surf sessions.
