David Beckham's iconic Manchester United boots leave Cristiano Ronaldo in the shadows

A pair of David Beckham's iconic Adidas Predator boots worn during the 1999 treble-winning season have sold for £14,000.

Graham Budd Auctions put the pair under the hammer earlier this week. And Beckham's Accelerator version of the Predators fetched the lofty amount having been estimated to fetch between £10,000 to £20,000.

Fellow former Manchester United player Cristiano Ronaldo saw a pair of his boots from the 2006 World Cup in Germany also auctioned off. And they didn't fetch anywhere near the price of the Beckham pair, the Nike boots going for £5,000.

Several other items also went under the hammer across two days of auctioning. For United supporters in attendance virtually or in person, there was also the temptation of multiple lots from another of the club's number seven's, George Best, in particular a 1967/68 season home shirt. A Sir Bobby Charlton England shirt was also up for sale, as was another from fellow 1966 World Cup winner Nobby Stiles.

Boots worn by Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero, Argentine footballing royalty Diego Maradona as well as ex-England and Liverpool winger John Barnes were also available to bid on.
