“I played football until I was 14 years old, having started when I was two.” When visiting Bayern Munich’s training facilities in 2016, Odell Beckham Jr. told ESPN, “There are moments when I wish I was a football player.” Beckham Jr. recently embraced the adage “friends of your rivals are your friends” in a fascinating way.
