PIC: David Beckham’s new tattoo pays tribute to Manchester United’s treble-winning season

It's not a Solskjaer portrait

Either David Beckham is fondly remembering the legendary 1998-99 season at Old Trafford or he’s absolutely mad about ice-cream cones.

The former Manchester United player has gotten a tattoo of the number 99 on his finger and posted a picture of the tatt (see, we know the lingo) on Instagram with the caption “99 was a good year for me…”

He’s not wrong as he scored 9 goals in his 55 appearances for the Red Devils that season but the tattoo may also have some romantic meaning as 1999 was the year that he married wife, and our fourth favourite Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham.
