Authorities in England this week issued an image of a man they want to speak to, and social media users thought he bore more than a passing resemblance to former soccer superstar David Beckham .

Police in Hertfordshire county released a grainy surveillance photo of the man who could help with our inquiries following a theft from a construction supplies store in the town of Bishops Stortford on Oct. 21.

Definitely David Beckham, one person lightheartedly responded to the snap on Twitter.

Hang on a minute thats David Beckham, wrote another social media user.

The real Beckham was actually spending family time at the Disneyland theme park in California on the day in question, posting videos and photos to his Instagram account.
