Beckham still hoping for United return

December 20, 2010


David Beckham wants to play for a European club this winter in a bid to win
back his England place - and has hinted he would relish a return to
Manchester United.

Beckham has spent the last two winters on loan from Los Angeles Galaxy at AC
Milan but accepts that move will not happen again - and he has ruled out all
Premier League clubs apart from the Reds.

The 35-year-old, who on Sunday night received the BBC sports personality's
lifetime achievement award, said: "I won't be going back to AC Milan this
time because is not possible to go onto the roster for such a short length of
time.

"But I will be going back somewhere as I want to keep myself fit and keep
myself in with a chance of getting called up for England again. To do that, I
have to be somewhere so fingers crossed I can sort something out."

Beckham, whose Major League Soccer season with the Galaxy does not begin
again until March, has trained with Arsenal in the past to regain his fitness
but he will resist offers to play for any other Premier League club apart
from United, and he concedes the chances of that are remote.

He added: "I have always missed playing in the Premier League since I left it
almost eight years ago.

"It is a great league and one of the most competitive in the world. Maybe one
day I will come back here but I have always said that it will only be for
Manchester United. I am not holding my breath on that one, but we will have
to wait and see.

"But definitely not Preston [where he played on loan as a teenager] - it's
too cold up there!"

Beckham has not played for England since suffering a torn Achilles tendon in
March that kept him out of the World Cup, but he made a successful return for
the Galaxy.

"My body feels great after my injury," Beckham said. "I always said I needed
to get that back into order and keep my fitness and we will see."

Beckham was teary-eyed after receiving a standing ovation that lasted more
than two minutes from the great and the good of British sport at the BBC
awards last night - and he admitted to being dumbfounded at the depth of
feeling towards him.

"That was one of the best reactions I have had from an audience and I have to
thank them because it was incredible," he said.

"I had to try to hold back the tears because I could see my wife getting
emotional and my mum bawling as usual. My children were sat there, too, and
it tipped me over the edge.

"One of the things I said I was going to say and then forgot was that
receiving a lifetime achievement award is something you normally get at the
end of a career.

"I still feel that I am starting a new chapter, to be honest. I still feel
that I am playing well and playing on and can still do it. I have not
finished yet.

"I wake up every day and want to achieve something. I have to be a good role
model for my children and other children out there.

"I love the game and am not done with playing the game yet. I might be 35
years old but I still feel that I can play at the top level for another
couple of years. Hopefully, I can do that."
