David Beckham Transfer: Becks move to Australia after end of Major League season to Perth Glory / MLS News

David Beckham leaves  LA Galaxy,  Posh Spice Victoria and David’s new address Australia from now on Beckham playing football land of Down Under.

David Beckham has insisted he has no plans to play in Australia after reports suggested he was planning a career move Down Under.

A spokesman for the 37-year-old midfielder issued a statement saying “There is always enormous interest from clubs across the world in signing David as a player.

“There are absolutely no plans to play in Australia. David is completely focused on the Major League Soccer play-offs and winning another Championship with the Galaxy.”

The Football Federation Australia (FFA) had said they were approached by Beckham’s management about the possibility of him playing in their A-League but that no deal had been done.

Media reports suggested he would play just 10 games, with several clubs hoping to attract him. The move would have to be ratified by the FFA and its new chief David Gallop.

David Beckham who signed a new two-year deal with LA Galaxy last January, has previously said he will not be making any decisions on his future until their season ends in two weeks’ time.

He has visited Australia a number of times with Galaxy, playing in friendlies against Sydney FC, Newcastle Jets and Melbourne Victoria, and has never ruled out a move to the country.

During the visits he was mobbed by fans and created a huge buzz on and off the pitch. Beckham would be the biggest signing ever for the A-League’ if it ever happened.

During one visit he was interviewed by former Manchester United team mate Mark Bosnich, now a Fox Sports pundit, who asked him his thoughts on the A-League.

“The standard’s similar to what it is in the US,” Beckham replied. “The game’s growing like it is in the US, and that’s great to see.

“People all around the world are talking about (Major League Soccer and the A League) now, and that’s a sign of the growth in both countries.”

Football in Australia is enjoying something of a resurgence at present with recent star recruits Alessandro Del Piero and Emile Heskey drawing record crowds and television audiences.

It is the country’s number one participation sport but is far behind Aussie rules football and rugby league as a spectator sport.

Beckham said earlier this year he had no intention of retiring from the game for a while. “If I continue to feel like I do right now, I’ll continue to play,” he said.

“I don’t feel 36 years old when I’m out there. I still love training, I still love playing.

“So I want to continue until I feel differently. I love the game. Until that stops, I want to play as long as I can.”

  1. It would be nice if this game can be co-oped, eh? Glad to see you guys reporting Skyrim, ceitlrnay want to hear more of your adventures! Amazing game it is with a vast and beautiful landscape (much bigger than Fallout 3 and Oblivion I believe) , and it doesn’t disappoint on delivering plenty of epic adventures. Am playing a 21 level Nord mage named Skyvix with 300+ mp, and rely solely on a faithful companion named Lydia to guard my default 100hp life. Tough but somehow we managed to survive this far I must say there are some fearsome foes that take more wits than skills to beat, and that make it so much more satisfying when you see a seemingly unbeatable foe falls!
