David Beckham Claims He Has Many Premier League Return Options: Would You Want Him?
by Mad Dog and Glory on September 7th, 2009 26 commentsDuring the summer transfer window the former Manchester United man was linked with a potential move to Tottenham and even Arsenal and Chelsea were mentioned as potential avenues of employment, but who would welcome the 34 year old to their club?
England midfielder David Beckham has suggested that he could make a return to the Premier League.
He is midway through a five-year deal with LA Galaxy but wants a new club when Major League Soccer season is closed between November and March.
“Everyone knows I will be planning to come back to Europe,” said the 34-year-old former Manchester United star.
Asked whether that would be in England he told BBC Radio: “I don’t know, there are a few options, put it that way.”
Last season Beckham spent a successful five-month loan spell at AC Milan, and the Italian club are keen to recruit him again.
He is anxious to maintain a high level of fitness to claim a place in Fabio Capello’s England squad ahead of the World Cup finals in 2010. (BBC Sport)
Clearly his American adventure has started to turn sour so perhaps a move to the Premier League is on the cards, that is if AC Milan don’t come calling. Would it be an expensive mistake for a Premier League club to foot the bill for the veteran or could such a move be a player worth taking a risk on?

He’d do a job at most Premier League clubs imo

I think David should swallow his pride and join Stoke City. What with Rory Delaps infamous throw ins, Ryan Shawcross’ gargantuan head and Beckhams trademark corners/free-kicks, they would surely win the league.

well i am not sure anyone will be keen on taking him lol he is an excellent player but as good as some on other players who are way better then him
he does have a great experienc in his bag, But there are somethings other clubs will consider
age is really not on his side so, is anyone clubs keen on buying him. IF he does come to premiurlegue he will not make a keen impact like ronaldo or kaka lol
Other top four clubs will not buy him including Manchester city

Liverpool is the best fit for Beckhams style. He is a great footballer and he can add a ton of experience to a top four side. I would love to have him.

Hull or Stoke ….. whatever! He’d onlycome back to prove himself and to do that he would want/need to play in a top 10 team at least, probably even top 4.
So anyway LFC would be the wisest choice for him to get regular play in and amongst better players with the incentive of Champs League an added bonus!
(But could posh ever be happy up north again?!)

no, dont come to arsenal. wtf… he’s slow as shit now… doesnt fit in either. he should consider birmingham, hull or maybe at most west ham. i think he could do well at birmingham with barry ferguson…

If he did come back to England God forbid, i think if Capello picks becks for the world cup then it could tarnish his reputation if he does play and play poorly and also squander any hopes of wining the world cup, we need to focus on the younger players, Milner and Young would be the main candidates and with Joe Cole on his way to fitness their are so many younger fitter and all round better players, if we did have becks in the world cup we would need crouch up front as he would be noddin in the balls, but against a powerhouse team like Germany that plan would fail, and he cant put the ball on the ground and score, its like giving Shaq a ball and telling him to shoot the 3 (brick) it wont work
Then what about Victoria maybe become a judge on X-factor maybe? bye bye Dani your boobs just arnt fake enough, so all in all, Beckham NO!! stay in the U.S where your contract is, and don’t ruin your illustrious reputation.

I Think Beckham should be join AC Milan, Kaka already give beck space… so don’t think to join another team that have many problem in EPL!! Career as a footballer not only shining at EPL.

Undoubtedly the most overrated player in the history of the game and has only his image to thank for his success, certainly not his football ability.
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 8:42 am
maybe sinking sunderland will be stupid enough to sign him
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 9:17 am
he’ll go to Arsenal
John Conor - September 8th, 2009 at 9:25 am
He’ll go to Man City… no Liverpool, no Aston Villa, no Hull…. I don’t know where he’ll go coz:
a) I don’t know him
b) I don’t work for any of the Premiership clubs
c) I suspect that this is just to intensify speculation and a bidding frenzy
d) I’ve got better things to do with my time than speculate on where David Beckham is going
… oh it could be Sunderland.
John Conor - September 8th, 2009 at 9:26 am
what about notts county…. Sol Campbell there and he’s going to play in the world cup you know!
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 10:28 am
Heard Livingstone are interested but then he may not make the side.
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 10:37 am
How Capello can still choose this player when there are brilliant talents such as Lennon, Wright-Phillips, Milner, Young, J. Cole and Walcott vying for that position is totally mind-boggling. Surely he should save face and retire now after all he has had his days. Besides he was never in their class even when he was young.
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 11:08 am
@ John Conor : haha sure let him go to notts so they can move up 2 the premier league with these 2 premier players *cough**cough*
anonymous - September 8th, 2009 at 2:28 pm

p.s come back to the red devils
Retryboy - September 8th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
Only reason liverpool would want him is because he would bring in more money than the yanks ever will only reason why any big club would want him really thats why he is still about the england squad getting cheap caps 4 merchandising
anonymous - November 15th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
come to liverpool
