Here’s how David Beckham ruined his engagement with Unicef

David Beckham, 46, is from 2005 ambassador of the charity organization Unicef, engaged in various campaigns to help less fortunate children around the world. Well, according to various sources the great one solidarity commitment of the former British footballer, 4 times dad, would have been ruined by the £ 150 million deal signed by Beckham to sponsor the 2022 World Cup in Qatar with his face, becoming ambassador of the Emirate.

As a new article published by the tabloid recallsDaily Mail UK, senior UNICEF officials would have been dismayed for David Beckham’s decision to sign the multi-million dollar deal with Qatar, promoting a country that effectively discriminates against women and homosexualsi, not shining at all for respect for human rights.

Already a few weeks ago the Ceo di Amnesty International UK, Sacha Deshmukh, had published a message addressed to the former football champion: “We urge David Beckham to inquire about the human rights situation in Qatar“. Starting from the mistreatment that has persisted for decades against immigrant workers, according to Deshmukh comparable to slavery.

The critics agree on one key point: David Beckham he would have put money (a lot) before moral issues. Hence the indignation of the upper floors of Unicef. And not only.
