Sources with direct knowledge tell us ... RR is thrilled about the new addition to his portfolio because of his experiences with his English soccer club and the 'Deadpool' movies.

Mark Wahlberg parece estar enviando un mensaje con su último post, ya que viene en los talones de la demanda de David Beckham contra su empresa de fitness.

El actor lanzó un video el miércoles en su página de IG, y si bien no fue la primera cosa que ha publicado desde que David presentó una demanda contra la marca de entrenamiento F45 de Mark, es la primera en la que está sin camisa y ladrando agresivamente, interesante teniendo en cuenta lo que está pasando.

El video es bastante simple; Mark aparece de pie al aire libre en las primeras horas de la madrugada -4 AM al parecer- y parece ser el comienzo de una rutina de entrenamiento.

Mark Wahlberg seems to be telegraphing a certain message with his latest thirst trap post -- which comes on the heels of David Beckham's lawsuit against his fitness company.

The actor threw up a video Wednesday on his IG page, and while it wasn't the first thing he's posted since David filed suit against Mark's F45 training brand ... it is the first one where he's shirtless and barking aggressively, interesting considering what's going on BTS.

The video's pretty simple ... it's Mark standing outside in the wee hours of the morning -- 4 AM, apparently -- which seems to be the start of whatever workout routine he's getting into.

Two fitness titans are on a path to square off in court, because David Beckham has sued Mark Wahlberg's company over a fitness deal that made the former soccer star way lighter in the wallet.

Beckham's company, DB Ventures Ltd, alleges in the lawsuit F45 "duped" him into signing on with F45 Training, a company in which Wahlberg has a 36% interest. M.W. also serves as the company's chief brand officer.

Beckham, who got close to Mark when he moved to Cali to play for the L.A. Galaxy, became F45's Global Ambassador. The selling point -- David has millions of social media followers, so it would presumably greatly expand the reach of the company.

Una final de fútbol en Holanda fue un auténtico infierno -literalmente- porque se produjo un incendio detrás de una de las porterías que sembró el caos en el partido.

El Feyenoord jugó contra el NEC Nijmegen en la final de la Copa de Holanda el domingo, cuando los aficionados, encendieron fuegos artificiales en el estadio y una enorme pancarta se incendió.

La columna de humo negro envuelve totalmente a los aficionados... por lo que es difícil incluso ver a los que están en el centro, mientras que los que están a los lados parecen estar pidiendo ayuda.

A soccer final in the Netherlands was a real barn burner ... quite literally 'cause a fire broke out behind one of the goals throwing the match into chaos.

The plume of black smoke's totally encasing the fans here ... making it difficult even to see the ones in the middle while those on the sides seem to be waving for help.

Dos titanes del fitness van camino de enfrentarse en los tribunales, porque David Beckham ha demandado a la empresa de Mark Wahlberg por un acuerdo de fitness que aligeró la cartera de la ex estrella del fútbol.

La empresa de Beckham, DB Ventures Ltd, alega en la demanda que F45 lo "engañó" para que firmara con F45 Training, empresa en la que Wahlberg tiene una participación del 36%. M.W. también es el director de marca de la empresa.

Beckham, que se acercó a Mark cuando se mudó a Cali para jugar en el L.A. Galaxy, se convirtió en Embajador Global de F45. El argumento de venta: David tiene millones de seguidores en las redes sociales, por lo que presumiblemente ampliaría enormemente el alcance de la empresa.
