David Beckham has submitted plans to ramp up security at his Cotswolds home with a gatehouse manned by 24-hour security guards and an underground getaway tunnel. His proposed security measures come as several footballers ramp up security at their homes, including Spurs midfielder Dele Alli, 24, who was held at knifepoint with his girlfriend Ruby Mae, 21, at his house in Hertfordshire last month. The Beckhams have applied to West Oxfordshire District Council for permission to build a gatehouse to 'improve security for occupants' at the mansion and surrounding grounds. The Daily Star reports that these two members of staff are security guards who will man the security hut 24 hours a day. Dele Alli has been reviewing security after he and his girlfriend, Ruby Mae, 21, were held at knifepoint.
