David Beckham is seen in undiscovered footage giving Rob McCaffery, Sky Sports’ presenter, a tour at Victoria’s former home.
Filmed in 1997, a baby-faced David, who would have been just 22 at the time, shows cameras around his and Posh Spice’s £150,000 house in Salford.
A far cry from their current £56,000,000 property portfolio, the Beckhams’ first home was humble in size and even featured a knee-sized hole in the hallway wall.

David’s humble living room was a display of his Manchester United early days. He had dark curtains, white leather sofa and a cutout cardboard. There were also trophies on the windowsill.
David explained the reason for cutting out: “My girlfriend wanted to cut a large cardboard picture of me.”
After the camera moved to Victoria and David’s kitchen, Victoria giggled as she showed off Walkers crisps with Victoria’s name on it.
David joked that it was sometimes embarrassing to buy a huge bag of Walkers crisps for your girlfriend.

The floor was covered with rows of trainers, which were also displayed in Victoria’s tiny bedroom.
A giddy David asked: “Did girls ever fancy you when you were a child?” He sweetly responded, “They used to think they were more cute.”
Rob also asked the question: “What type of mail do you receive?” Are you getting mail from people wishing to send you their knickers by post?
David answered: ‘Yeah. A black bra is mine. It was a big, massive black bra. My father was so excited.
Moving on: The footage was taken in 1997. However, David and Victoria were soon able to leave behind their small ways and move into their 12 acre estate (dubbed Beckingham Palace) in 1999.
