Preston contract of Man Utd legend Beckham on Deepdale office wall

David Beckham's Preston North End contract hangs on a wall at Deepdale.

Manchester United icon Beckham had a month-long loan at Preston in 1995, where he earned £400 a week, with a £50 bonus for being named in the first-team squad.

Paul Bradley, Preston's stadium manager, told the Telegraph: "David Beckham played down here on loan and I have his contract on my office wall.

"I was told to get rid of it by a former chairman, but I was sensible enough to keep it."

United go to Preston tonight for their FA Cup clash.

"We have quite an affinity with United," Bradley adds. "Bobby Charlton also had a spell down here, we have had a few players moving here from United and we also had Fergie junior in charge, although that went a bit sour in the end. "
