BECKS JOINS ARSENAL...(Sort of)

Posted Tuesday, January 29, 2013 by The Sun

DAVID BECKHAM is joining Arsenal today with his future still undecided.

Free agent Becks has agreed a top-secret plan with the Gunners to train with the first-team squad while he ponders his next move.

The former England superstar, 37, is reporting for duty at Arsenal’s state-of-the-art Hertfordshire training HQ this morning determined to prove he can still play at the highest level.

An Arsenal insider said: “Beckham wanted this all kept hush-hush. You have to wonder why?”

Becks has returned to England after his contract with MLS champs LA Galaxy expired.

Beckham has no ties after ending his five-year stint in California.

There was talk that the midfielder could be heading for big-spending French giants Paris Saint-Germain or Italians AC Milan where he has had two previous loan spells.

Premier League clubs QPR and West Ham also showed interest in signing him earlier this season.

Arsenal chief Arsene Wenger loves Beckham for his outstanding professional attitude and the influence he would have on the younger squad members.

Interestingly, Londoner Beckham is quickly settling back into life in England.

His three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, have all started playing in Chelsea’s youth system within the past week.
