New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has declared that he believes he could have been a professional soccer player if he hadn't chosen to focus on American football.

The NFL superstar got the chance to show what he can do with his feet when he practiced with Bayern Munich, including Spanish midfielder Xabi Alonso, on Friday morning in Germany.

Beckham does indeed appear to be a natural on the pitch, but at one point sent a practice free kick directly into the wall - proving he needs a bit more practice before he can "bend it like Beckham."
