He's leaving his family at home.

David Beckham has announced that he is planning to move to Florida to live his dream of owning a football club. Speaking at a press conference in Miami, David explained: “I want to thank my family. “Brooklyn and my wife Victoria, who is at home with the other kids. “They’ve been through the good times and the bad times and I owe them everything.” [caption id="attachment_160033" align="alignnone" width="1024"] Photo by Eric Espada/Getty Images)[/caption] “Whenever they [my family] can, they’ll be coming over.” His wife Victoria is going to stay in London with their three youngest children - Romeo, 15, Cruz, 12, and six-year-old Harper - during school term time, but they will fly out to see him during the holidays. Beckham was joined by eldest son Brooklyn, 18, at the announcement. A video showed Victoria saying: “We can’t wait to be spending much more time in Miami.” Daughter Harper added: “Hi daddy, I can’t wait to see your first football match!” Beckham's new club, which is yet to be named, will bring professional football back to Miami for the first time since 2001
