Manchester United fans love David Beckham's social media post ahead of Liverpool FC Champions League final

Manchester United supporters have praised David Beckham for his social media post ahead of next week's Champions League final.

Liverpool take on Tottenham Hotspur in Madrid a week on Saturday as they battle it out for the top prize in European club football, and it has posed a difficult decision for United fans.

Supporters are torn between the prospect of one of their domestic rivals being crowned champions of Europe, but the general consensus is a win for Spurs would be easier to cope with.

Ahead of the final, United favourite Beckham paid a visit to Tottenham at their training ground and was pictured chatting with Mauricio Pochettino and Harry Kane.

Last year the England icon also paid a visit to Real Madrid ahead of the showpiece final where he begged manager Zinedine Zidane to not let Liverpool win. His request worked with Real Madrid securing a 3-1 victory over Jurgen Klopp's side in Kiev.

And one year on from a similar scenario, United fans are hoping Beckham can prove to be Tottenham's good luck charm ahead of the Champions League final.
