Manchester United icon Roy Keane has admitted he once saw David Beckham with a fancy pen and was left wondering \u201cwho the f*** buys that.\u201d Keane and Beckham were team-mates at Old Trafford for 10 years between 1993 and 2003 and helped the Red Devils win six Premier League titles and the Champions League.<\/p>\n
Beckham became one of the most recognisable faces in the world during his United days as he hit the headlines on an almost daily basis. And Keane has told Beckham\u2019s new Netflix documentary that the former England star had a love of spending.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was the first to do it,\u201d said the Irishman. \u201cHe certainly upped everyone\u2019s game in the car park, I\u2019ll give him that. He bought a fancy pen. I was like \u2018who the f*** buys a pen? Who buys an expensive pen?\u2019 Shirts and clothes and all that I get, but who buys a pen?\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, former United ace Phil Neville has explained that Beckham would be skint the day after he had been paid during his early days in the north west. \u201cDavid used to get his salary on a Friday, spend it all by Saturday and then spend the next five days waiting for the next salary to get the jeans to match,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Have money, spend it. Me and Gary [Neville] were like \u2018let\u2019s save it for a rainy day.\u2019 We used to put money into a pension and David was like \u2018what are f*** are you doing?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Beckham made 394 appearances for United after progressing through the club\u2019s academy and bagged 85 goals and 120 assists. He departed Old Trafford in 2003 to join Real Madrid and featured 159 times for the Spanish giants, before spending time with LA Galaxy, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

The 48-year-old, who is England\u2019s third most-capped player of all-time after appearing a staggering 115 times for the Three Lions, won his final cap against Belarus in 2009.<\/p>\n \u201cI spent my money,\u201d said the former midfielder as he reacted to Keane\u2019s comments. \u201cI liked nice stuff. As soon as we got money, I wanted to buy a nice watch. I signed a contract with Adidas for \u00a350,000 – and I went and bought an M3 for \u00a350,000.\u201d<\/p>\n
