Beckham not for Nou Camp, says Antic

BARCELONA coach Raddy Antic does not believe reports that the club will sign England captain David Beckham.

Barca are preparing to elect a new club president and, although candidate Joan Laporta suggested he could snap up Beckham from Manchester United, he has only a slim chance of winning the most votes of Barca’s 100,000 members, with Luis Bassat the clear favourite.

It is the silly season in the Catalonian city, with the wealthy aspirants to the club’s top job suggesting they will splash out to land the likes of Beckham, if elected to the presidency.
