Beckham Might Be Going Back to England?
A report in the Sunday Express suggests that soccer stud, David Beckham, may be leaving his American dream behind him and heading back to England.
“He is seeking crisis talks with bosses of LA Galaxy to discuss a possible return to England on loan in January,” the paper reported.
Bosses at Galaxy, who are struggling at the foot of their league, will consider cutting their losses when their season ends on October 21 and allow Beckham to return home temporarily in the hope that if he achieves his England dream he will return refreshed to help them fulfil their own aspirations.
Galaxy general manager Alexei Lalas said: “We would never stand in the way of a player representing his country. David’s love of England and the honour it is for him to represent his country is evident from the first time you talk to him.
“We need to sit down with him and do what’s best for our organisation and him.”
During the SuperLiga final match against Pachuca on 29 August, Beckham seriously injured his right knee in a challenge with Fernando Salazar in the 30th minute. The Galaxy went on to lose the match in penalties. An MRI scan the following day revealed that Beckham had sprained his medial collateral ligament (MCL) and that he would be out for six weeks.
A Galaxy spokesman refuted an earlier report that Beckham had also undergone arthroscopic surgery. The news comes as a massive blow to the struggling Galaxy, England, and Beckham, as he will now miss several key matches for the Galaxy and England. However, some believe that there may be a silver lining, as it will force Beckham to rest until his problematic left ankle is fully healed before returning to the pitch.
