Ex-England Captain Hints At Playing For His Own Club

Former England captain David Beckham has hinted that he might return to the pitch in no time to come as he looks to the launch of his new MLS Franchise.

The 39 year-old who retired while playing for MLS club LA Galaxy retired in May 2014 having played for Manchester United and Real Madrid, AC Milan and PSG where he finally retired.

Beckham appeared on a BBC One Documentary 'David Beckham: Into the unknown,' where he disclosed his intention. He admitted that he had "a tough time" after retirement but has now gone through a rest stage and is considering calling off his retirement.

"Now I go to watch a basketball game and, when you are watching athletes play at the top of their game, it gives me that itch again and I want to be back in the game and I start thinking to myself 'Could I play again? Could I go back? Could I come out of retirement and start playing again?" Beckham quizzed.

As an active player, he played 115 times for England with no major honours at the international level except for his days at Man Utd and Real Madrid.

Beckham recently launched the campaign for a new club in America's Major League Soccer and has already started the process with a Miami-based club where he hopes to revive his playing career; even though he acknowledges that "there's never been a player-owner, but maybe?"
