The young forward currently plays for Inter Miami's development side, Inter Miami II, where he's built his experience in the MLS Next Pro.

Having led the the league's assist charts last term with 10 assists and two goals to his name, Inter Miami II finished sixth in the Eastern Conference.

Beckham, who spent time with Arsenal's academy as a youngster, has been training with Brentford B since the end of the MLS Next Pro season.

In that time he's clearly made an impression, with B team boss Neil McFarlane saying: "We've been absolutely delighted with Romeo since he arrived with us.

"He came to us from Inter Miami with the aim of working with us during their close season. Romeo has applied himself unbelievably well, he's really bought into the culture and the group which he has become a big part of.

"I love his standards and the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch. He's been able to get fitter and fitter during his time with us and it leaves him in a good place to now step forward having joined us on loan.

"He is very technical, and he is somebody who can shift the ball quickly and cross. He is also a really good finisher and he has the ability to play a number of positions for us, which is also pleasing.

"I think it's testament to us as a club, and as a B team, that Inter Miami have asked us to work with him and trust in us to continue working with him to help him with his development."

Speaking to Brentford's club website after his move, Beckham said: "I'm very proud and very happy to be here.

"I came here at the start to keep fit during the off season. The chance then came to come on loan here and I've never been so excited. It was a fun season [in the USA] and there were a lot of ups and downs but I'm excited to come here and see what I can do."
