Romeo Beckham to reject Arsenal for tennis chance

Romeo Beckham may turn down football to take up tennis.

The son of Manchester United legend David Beckham, Romeo is currently playing for Arsenal's youth team.

But if he fulfills his potential, according to tennis coach John Johnson, the 10-year-old could make it as a pro in tennis.

"He has a lot of talent and very good hand-eye coordination," Johnson was quoted as saying in the Daily Star.

"I'm going to have a meeting with his mother about it to reinforce that because I'm not sure his parents realise how good he is."
