David Beckham Interested in Returning to Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur

Four years, three tattoos, two prostitute allegations, and one ankle injury ago, David Beckham left the Spanish League to come to the Los Angeles Galaxy of the MLS. Beckham had his ups-and-downs with the Galaxy and went on loan to Milan twice, but he’s back in Los Angeles. Becks is now 35 and recovering from an achilles injury, and it appears as if he wants to return to the Premier League in England for a few months before the Galaxy’s season begins in March.

In a “what are the odds?” story, Beckham reportedly ran into a former Tottenham Hotspurs player while shopping at Harrods department store for gifts. Beckham reportedly told Jamie Redknapp, whose father helps run the Spurs, he was interested in returning to the Premier League and playing for Tottenham. There appears to be mutual interest between the two.

If Beckham wants to return to the Premier League, the Galaxy and MLS can let it happen by loaning him to Tottenham, as they’ve done twice with Milan. Beckham had said if he returned to the Premier League it would be with Manchester United, but the Reds likely don’t have interest in him. Becks played for Tottenham Hotspurs’ youth team before joining Manchester United, and he could see his schedule get packed if he ends up loaned out to Tottenham.
