Romeo Beckham has left Brentford but has not signed for a new club.
Instead, the 22-year-old has joined a top fashion agency in Paris because he would rather focus on a career in the industry.

The son of English football legend David Beckham has been playing for the Bees’ B team since 2023 and was given the opportunity to extend his contract in June.
However, according to The Sun, Beckham has left the club in a deal with French agency Safe Management.
A source told the outlet: “Romeo has decided to hang up his football boots and devote his time to his fashion career.
“He has enjoyed his time at Brentford but needs to turn his attention to fashion as that is his passion.
“Romeo recently signed with a top fashion agent in Paris and has his sights set on working with some big brands.”
It is not the first time that the son of David and Victoria Beckham has changed career path.
After playing for Arsenal as a teenager, he swapped football for tennis.
However, he returned to the sport in 2020 before signing with his father’s Major League Soccer club, Inter Miami, in 2021.
He made 26 appearances for Inter Miami II, scoring two goals and ten assists in his final season with the MLS reserves before joining Brentford on loan in January 2023.

This deal became final in the summer of this year.
But now Beckham’s second son will leave football behind and follow in the footsteps of his mother, who formerly played as Posh Spice in the legendary British band Spice Girls.
After the end of her singing career, Victoria became a fashion designer and is considered a fashion icon herself.
Romeo has been on the cover of numerous magazines over the years and was involved in a Burberry campaign at the tender age of two.
