Lionel Messi versus Cristiano Ronaldo debate - and believes that the Barcelona talisman is the greatest player in the world.
The Manchester United legend insists that both superstars are a level above the rest of the sport, but views Messi as also being in a class of his own.
Beckham, who came up against Messi during his brief stint at Paris Saint-Germain, insists it is 'impossible' that any player comes close to matching the diminutive Argentine's talent. The former Real Madrid star, now the president at Inter Miami, enjoyed a trophy-laden career of his own - having won the Premier League, Champions League and La Liga among a host of others.
But both Messi and Ronaldo have been leading at the forefront for over a decade in Europe, and hold a sensational 11 Ballon d'Ors between them.
Beckham was even rumoured to have approached Messi with a view to a sensational switch for his newly-founded MLS team.
The Times reported that the former England captain was hopeful of securing a number of elite players to his club, with Messi seen as the ultimate statement.
The report stated that there is a belief that a MLS swoop for Messi may be viable in two years' time, with Inter Miami a potential destination.
