Spurs boss Harry Redknapp plans David Beckham loan bid

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp will try to bring David Beckham to White Hart Lane on loan from LA Galaxy in Januari

The Major League Soccer seasons starts on 15 March, letting Redknapp hope for a temporary deal. Redknapp states that they will contact LA Galaxy to see if they will let Beckham go for three months and if he wants to go himself.

David Beckham himself claims that it is unlikely for him to go as he wants to focus on his fitness. He had only returned in September after a vacancy of six months due to his Achilles tendon injury.

Redknapp believes Beckham would be fit enough to play at top level, and notes that it favors Beckham on other accounts as well. Fabio Capello, England manager, urged Beckham to come back and prove his fitness.

Reaction: Media coverage aside, Beckham hasn't played in the Premier league since his departure to Real Madrid in 2003. It might just be good for him to come back. I do understand his fitness issues though. Achilles tednons suck when it comes to healing in both short and long term.

English football is my cup of tea. They don't fake like the Spanish, they still play during the harsh winter and it's rough in a good way. If you can play in the Premier league, I say you can play almost anywhere. That being said, it might not be such a bad idea for Becks.
