David Beckham has insisted he ‘never wanted to create attention’ when he shaved his signature blond curtains.

In the third episode of the BECKHAM series, David said he shaved off his famous blond look to ‘rebel’ from his manager, after the pair had a tense row during training.

He said: ‘I had a hairdresser at the time called Tyler, I said to him ‘I’m gonna cut my hair,’ and he said ”are you sure? You really want to do that?”

Ole Gunnar Solskjær then recalled David returning to training with his shaved head under a hat, and when Sir Alex asked him to remove it, he refused.

Speaking in the documentary, Alex said: ‘Stubbornness! But oh well.’

Gary Neville added: ‘Come on, you’;re asking for a b********g, you’re asking for trouble, he knew that it would p**s sir Alex off, so why do it?

‘That was his personality, never bothered you? Never bothered me in the last, I used to think ”you better back it up at the weekend!” Roy Keane added.

David’s new look became a nationwide obsessed, with schools forced to ban children from shaving their heads to emulate their idol.

Explaining the decision to change his famous look, David added: ‘I never did it to create attention, I’m not that person.’

How David started going from a boy to a man

His wife Victoria added: ‘David starts going from a boy to a man, and it’s only natural you’re going to start flexing your muscles right? And don’t all kids rebel against their parents?’

Relations between David and Sir Alex continued to deteriorate in the later years, culminating in the moment that he had to be held back during their infamous row in 2003 after the legendary Scot kicked a boot at the ex-England captain.

Beckham remembered seeing his ‘fuming’ boss and revealed he had swore at him to further enrage him on top of the result after his manager criticised him for failing to follow his runner in the build up to a goal.

Ferguson then launched a boot at Beckham, with the midfielder later seen sporting an eye injury in training.
