The Briton who currently holds a slot with french league Paris Saint Germaine (PSG) is expected to use his position to promote Chinese football globally.
Reacting to the news, the 38 year-old model said "I am honored to have been asked to play such an important role at this special time in Chinese football history. I'm excited by the prospect of promoting the world's greatest game to Chinese sports fans as I've seen firsthand the growing interest in football there.
This is a wonderful sport that inspires people across the world and brings families together, so I'm relishing the opportunity of introducing more fans to the game."
An official of the Chinese Football Association disclosed that Beckham's credibility as one of the most revered and successful sports figures in the world inspired their decision.
"We are pleased to invite Mr. Beckham to visit China at this special moment. While in China, he will attend the CSL and visit Clubs to get a deeper insight into football in China. He will also help us to inspire and motivate as many children to participate in this beautiful game." He added.
