Will Beckham Play On?
So, Beckham is out of the England side and is now to leave Real. One would presume such a fall from grace might end a player's career. It is unlikely Becks will retire from football. I am of the opinion David Beckham still has a lot to offer both the England national team and a top level football club. Beckham can play on and be highly effective for a good 3 seasons if not more. Becks has never needed much in the way of pace to be effective on a soccer pitch. I see no reason why age be a real barrier regard Beckham and playing quality football, much like ex England striker Teddy Sheringham.
Beckham To Bolton?
For £4 million, it is possible David Beckham may join a club in the transfer window. As Beckham is cup-tied for the Champions League, I doubt it will be one of the big 4 in England. Bolton have been touted as a possibility. Though not many clubs will want to pay £4 million for a player they can get for nothing in 4 months time.

I had a feeling he'd end up going to America. I'd have loved to see him back here rubbing Maclaren's nose in it, but alas, it wasn't to be.
Well, I hope he's a success over there, and that he can teach those Americans about real football, lol!

Beckham Leaves Real Madrid
David Beckham has denied he is moving to the United States for the money, although he admits his £128million fee is a "huge" and "amazing" sum.
The former England captain insists he is heading to LA Galaxy this summer to be "part of history" and not just for the money.
"Of course it's a huge amount of money... it's an amazing amount of money," Beckham told ABC News' Good Morning America.
He added: "I said yesterday and some people laughed at me, but this move for me is not about the money, it's about hopefully making a difference in the US with the soccer and that's what I'm going there for.
"I'm going for the life of course, for my kids to enjoy it and my wife to enjoy it, but the main thing for me is to improve the soccer and to improve the standard and to be part of history really."
The five-year deal will see Beckham earn more than £70,000 a day - more than any player has ever earned.
Experts believe it will also help protect the 31-year-old's status as a global marketing brand.
Beckham added: "I think soccer can be a lot bigger in the US. "From a young age kids are brought up with soccer - they're brought up with soccer to a certain age and then they seem to go into other areas.
"Hopefully that's what I'll be there for, to pass my experience on to them."
Asked if the money would enable him to buy anything he could not afford before, Beckham said: "I'm sure there'll be many things but my wife controls that side.
"We'll enjoy that side."
He said there would "plenty of opportunities" for Victoria but added she was currently content working on her fashion line rather than thinking about restarting a career in musical.
"On the singing side I think Victoria's happy doing what she's doing at the moment," said the former Manchester United star.
"She's got her own fashion line with the jeans and the sunglasses and the perfumes.
"I'm sure there'll be plenty of other opportunities for her but she's just happy doing what she's doing at the moment and also being a mum."
