This season’s Manchester United kit may be too tight for the players, but The Rock has taken it to new extremes.

With David Beckham’s documentary no.1 on Netflix, the Hollywood megastar decided to get involved with the fun for Halloween.

The legendary former WWE muscle man was seen sporting Beckham’s no.7 in this season’s kit, along with one of his Real Madrid-era haircuts and headbands.

The Rock, real name Dwayne Johnson, captioned the post: “265lb BLA-MOAN BECKHAM.

“#7 on the field. #1 in your heart Happy Halloween, my friends. BlaMoan = Black + Samoan #BendItLikeABlaMoan #TaurusEnergy #May2ndBabies.”

Along with both of the global superstars being born on May 2, they’ve also both successfully transcended the sport that made them famous to become household names worldwide.

Beckham commented with a laughing/crying emoji and wrote: “I mean I thought I was looking in the mirror. Looking good man you might need a bigger jersey.”

The Rock isn’t the only one struggling with the tightness of the kit, with reports claiming that United are unhappy with suppliers adidas about their 2023/24 edition.

The Daily Mail claims that players haven’t worn official socks since the second game of the season due to tightness, and multiple players have resulted to cutting holes in them to loosen them up.

On top of that, goalkeeper Andre Onana has swapped his more expensive ‘authentic’ shirt for adidas’ cheaper fan option due to his discomfort in goal.
