David Beckham and celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay are reportedly considering opening their own pub in Los Angeles.

The footballer might even call it The Queen Vic, after his wife of 11 years Victoria.

David and Gordon have been close friends for many years and according to sources, the two have considered several joint ventures but reckon an English pub would be the best.

"He wants pie and mash, fish and chips and even chicken in a basket on the menu, just like the meals he eats when he's in the UK," the Daily Star quoted a friend of David, 35, as saying.

Beckham moved to America three years ago when he signed a deal to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy team.

After moving to America, David - who has three sons with Victoria - admitted one of the things he missed the most about Britain was a "lager shandy" and a roast dinner in a pub on a Sunday.

He said: "I miss English pubs - having a good lager shandy and a Sunday lunch while watching the football."

Speaking about the possible pub venture, a spokesman for Beckham told the paper: "There are no plans in the pipeline, but never say never."
