After England’s defender Harry Maguire had a difficult week due to his dismissal against Scotland, David Beckham texted him a message of encouragement.

After Maguire’s own goal against Scotland last week, Beckham, who was engaged in his fair share of contentious situations while playing for England, texted Maguire, according to The Sun. The defender who was coming under fire appreciated the gesture.

According to a source, “Becks told Harry to keep his head up.” He has experience with being a target. He overcame it, and he has no doubt Harry will succeed. For Harry, receiving a note from Becks meant the world.

Maguire has faced harsh criticism for both club and country, and many people are asking if he still belongs in the England team after being released by Manchester United. However, the center-back’s friends and family have been quick to come to his defense. In a post on social media, his mother blasted the “disgraceful” behavior of her son, while Ten Hag said that Maguire didn’t deserve the hatred he’s been subjected to.
