whether he’ll retire or he’ll be moving to LA. theres no way he’s coming back to England.

I like to believe that’s true but I’m not convinced. He’s still very marketable and a mid-table team in the Premiership would have a lot of use for him.

Moreover, in the English press, MLS is never mentioned in conjunction with this story.

I certainly don’t see him retiring yet.

“Moreover, in the English press, MLS is never mentioned in conjunction with this story.”

And the MLS not being mentioned by the English press is anything new?

I don’t think Beckham has the balls to be able to deal with his lack of talent that will be extremely evident in the premiership (that is extremely evident at Real Madrid).

Beckham knows he’s only good for marketing, and the best place to do that is the MLS where a majority won’t care what he performs like.

if he’s coming back to England, there are three major clubs that are interested. Liverpool, Tottenham and Newcastle.
I can’t see him plays to those clubs and I don’t think MU are keen to get him back. Inter Milan also might be in interested.

Looks like they’re denying that.
