David Beckham in car crash after picking up son Brooklyn from Arsenal's training ground

David Beckham was involved in a car accident this morning after picking up his son Brooklyn from Arsenal’s training ground.

Beckham, 39, had been at the training centre at London Colney, Hertfordshire, watching his eldest son Brooklyn, 15, play for the club’s under-16 side against Brighton.

Although the former England captain and his son walked away from the accident unhurt, Beckham's original car was unable to be used.

Arsenal staff ushered onlookers away from the scene and Beckham was driven away in another car. Both were said to be shaken following the accident.

One Brighton youngster, Archie Davies, tweeted: ‘Just seen David Beckham looks like he got in a car crash and hurt his shoulder.’ The teenager then added: ‘Star struck by seeing David Beckham tbh.’
