Actor
Tom
Cruise
is
reportedly
launching
a
£40
million
takeover
bid
of
friend
David
Beckham's
new
soccer
club.
The
Hollywood
actor
is
a
huge
soccer
fan
and
wants
to
give
his
financial
backing
to
the
Los
Angeles
Galaxy.
A
source
said:
"To
have
Tom's
backing
would
be
amazing
-
there's
no
way
Galaxy
bosses
would
turn
down
that
opportunity."
Beckham
signed
for
Galaxy
this
January
on
a
reported
£128
million
five-year
deal
although
he
doesn't
start
playing
for
them
until
next
month.
Cruise
watched
Beckham
at
Real
Madrid's
home
ground
the
Bernabeu
on
Sunday
to
see
the
Spanish
team
win
the
league
title.
He
was
joined
in
the
stands
by
wife
Katie
Holmes
and
the
sport
ace's
wife
Victoria
and
their
three
sons,
Brooklyn,
Romeo
and
Cruz.
After
seeing
Beckham's
team
crowned
as
champions,
the
two
couples
celebrated
into
the
early
hours
with
a
meal
in
an
exclusive
Madrid
restaurant,
followed
by
dancing
at
a
local
club.
They
finally
left
for
home
at
7am
the
next
morning.
