Beckham marks marriage, treble with '99' tattoo

Former England captain David Beckham has revealed that he has had the number 99 tattooed on one of his fingers to commemorate a "good year" for him.

The now-retired midfielder was part of the Manchester United squad that won the Premier League title, FA Cup and Champions League during 1999, and became a father for the first time following the birth of Brooklyn in March before marrying Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham at the end of the season.

The 40-year-old revealed the new design on his Instagram account:
