David Beckham was in Modena recently and stopped by Massimo Bottura’s Casa Maria Luigia, and rather than simply enjoying his meal and posing with Bottura for the obligatory photo, it seems the former footballer got stuck in with some plating as well.
Not only do Bottura and Beckham share a love of football, but they both have a passion for Maserati cars - photos of the former England footballer posing with his Maserati Mc20 at Bottura’s B&B Casa Maria Luigia were all over Italian media.
It seems Beckham was also in La Spezia on this trip, possibly to buy a yacht as the city is famous for some very large yacht manufacturers. Most likely, Becks was also paying a visit to the home of Maserati, as he became a brand ambassador for the Modenese car maker some months ago.
