"#BeckhamRoyalty"
We couldn't describe this photo any better than Odell himself. The New York Giants' sensational wide receiver recently met English soccer legend David Beckham at a function. The two share a last name, so why not share a photo-op together as well?
It's clear that real recognizes real in this scenario.
Odell Beckham posted the photo to his Twitter account as part of the site's popular #TBT (throwback Thursday) trending hashtag.
Check it out below:

The two have more in common than just a last name, too. Odell was apparently quite the soccer star himself before committing to football full time.
“I played seriously until I was about 13 or 14 then the(US) national team wanted me to try out for it,” he said to NJ.com. “It’s just so much for a young kid to have to decide that. You’d have to leave your family. But I always played in the premiere leagues. I was 11 playing U-14, stuff like that. I was always playing up."
And now why don't you check out both Odell and Beckham's most sensational career plays as well:
