Eric Cantona: David Beckham made a 'big, big mistake' becoming Qatar World Cup ambassador
Eric Cantona has criticised his former Manchester United team-mate David Beckham for his position as a 2022 Qatar World Cup ambassador. Former players Tim Cahill, Cafu, Samuel Eto'o, Xavi Hernandez and Ronald de Boer also hold ambassadorial positions for the tournament, due to be held in November and December this year. Ad At the start of 2022, Cantona said he would boycott the tournament in protest at the human rights abuses associated with the construction of some of the venues.
