Highly rated 10-year-old Aussie Beckham Baker is heading to La Liga club Villarreal for a trial.
The technically gifted junior was spotted by the Spanish club during their recent junior academy program in Melbourne.
He’ll be at Villarreal for 10 days initially, although that might be extended if he continues to impress the Spanish outfit’s junior coaches.
Beckham is part of a four-player group going to Spain that includes Jordan Olds, Noah Alessi, and Andrew Pothitos.
The 10-year-old is also said to be on the radar of Melbourne City in the A-League for their U13s side.
His father Mark explained to FTBL that his family moved to Melbourne to help his son’s burgeoning career.
“In January this year, Becks and we went to Levante in Spain for two weeks," he revealed. “We went with Marco Maisano and Gabriel ‘Chi Chi’ Mendez who looked after us over there.
“Becks trained with their U11s and U12s and got a 10-page report back from them and it was excellent. His report was outstanding.
“And he wants to play for Australia."

“He has mentors like Daniel 'D10 Capellaro' and Tim Cahill, Dario Vidosic and James Troisi following him on Instagram.
“Tim sends him advice, as do Dario and James and he’s supported by a lot of A-League players. And D10 has been a great mentor.
"Becks stays very grounded and works hard. He loves Melbourne City but Beckham’s dream is to play in the major leagues, and he loves Manchester United.
“That’s his ultimate dream."

And young Beckham has already been to Old Trafford as an eight-year-old, training with the English club.
Baker was named by his Timor-born David Beckham-loving mother, Dolores.
Mark added: “My wife was in love with David Beckham, so the nearest she could get to him was naming her son after him."
