Caught! David Beckham singing along to One Direction is the BEST

Well, David Beckham is certainly a One Directioner. And it seems the retired footballer likes to sing along to the band's songs while driving along in his car. 

The 40-year-old was caught singing Steal My Girl in a compilation of farewell tributes aired on The X Factor last night.

The clip, which can be seen in the 1.45 minute mark, is followed by a cute message from David who wanted to say a temporary goodbye to the lads. 

"Boys, what can I say? Five years and you've given so much to so many people," said David. "Unbelievably talented but more importantly unbelievable guys. Congratulations – five years of incredible moments. You need to come back soon or you're gonna have more videos like that."
