David Beckham has revealed his next big ambition - conquering outer space.

The Real Madrid ace is hoping to follow in the footsteps of Neil Armstrong and visit the Moon once his footballing days are over.

He told a Spanish radio station: "It would be great to have the opportunity to go to the Moon when I retire from football.

"It would be a real experience ... as a lot of players go into coaching after football. But I've already decided that coaching is not for me."

It is unknown whether Beckham's wife Victoria would be joining him.
