The most successful thing David Beckham ever did wasn't football

When he signed with the LA Galaxy in 2007, his contract included a clause giving him the right to buy a future MLS expansion team for $25,000,000

MLS later offered to buy the clause back from him for $50,000,000. He said no

What happened next:

• 2014: Exercises the $25M option and picks Miami

• 2020: Club plays its first ever MLS match

• 2023: Spends 4 years convincing Messi to join, turning down $400M from Saudi Arabia

• 2023/24: Revenue goes from under $60M to $200M in a single year

• 2026: Forbes values Inter Miami at $1,350,000,000

His 26% stake is worth ~$351,000,000 today
