They call him Spice Boy and if he is a slap or caress it is unclear. The “fault” has been by Victoria, a wife since 1999 and former column of the Spice Girls, but it is also thanks to her if David Beckham, the Spice Boy of England today, has become what it is. That is, style icon, champion on the pitch and sample off the outside, if we want Gamechanger – to put it in English – in the way he managed to combine the world of football and that of fashion. To say that it was the progenitor is wrong, but certainly the former Galactic in some way marked a before and after. So who, who if not him, David Beckham from London, to open the special Sportweek trends? On newsstands on Saturday with La Gazzetta dello Sport at a total price of 2.50 euros.

Style icons

Looking for style? Please go to number 7. Seven like David Beckham, like George Best and Gigi Meroni, like Cristiano Ronaldo that that number has also stuck to his initials. Talents? Yes. Style icons? As well. Football and fashion stories told by Alessandra Bocci to whom Moise Kean, Florentine and the national team cannot be missing: today the boy scores, dances, parades and sings. But yesterday … the service on the Italian bomber, edited by Marco Bucciantini, touches a little every stage in the sporting life of the Vercelli bomber.

Football and tennis

Space then to Marcus Thuram from Parma, the last of the players born in places you don’t expect. Among others Haaland, Higuain, Perrotta … and even someone who came to the world in the Atlantic Ocean. Still football with the story of George Dowell, whose career was cut off at 17 years of age from an accident that forced him to wheelchair: “I did not expect so many satisfactions from my new life”, the latter that saw him save his club from bankruptcy using the money of compensation. Also present was the memory of the magical Scudetto del Verona (told in the new book by Paolo Condò), the new life of Diego Fuser (a little races between radio -controlled cars and a little football) and the usual Top 11, this week designed by the former defender Nicola Legrottaglie. In closing the tennis, with Paolo Bertolucci – hero of the Davis of ’76, now commentator – who talks about the phenomena of the future, the so -called Next Gen between Joao Fonseca, Jakub Messik and our Federico Cinà.

The Style opening is dedicated to the new ID. Volkswagen Buzz, electric re -edition of the old and iconic van of the German company, then a series of fashion services to color the special trends signed by Gianluca Zappoli, Livia De Franco and Paola Ventimiglia. And between a trip to Abruzzo and a first taste of the Easter doves, the usual “Icon” column dedicated to the memory of Bobby Jones, the legendary amateur of Golf, during the weekend of Masters Augusta he conceived. This and much more on newsstands on Saturday with La Gazzetta dello Sport.
