Former England captain David Beckham shows his tattoo to students at Peking University during a visit to Beijing in last year.

Some soccer stars' tattoos of Chinese characters: David Beckham has retired from the game, but he probably remains one of the most influential international sports icons for Chinese fans. When he lifted his shirt to show"生死有命富貴由天" ("Life and death are determined by fate, nobleness and riches decreed by Heaven") tattooed in beautiful calligraphy during a visit to Peking University last year, perhaps, he also became the bearer of the best-known tattoo among soccer players in the country.[Photo/Agencies]
