Becks cameo still up in air

A host of clubs may be queuing up to offer David Beckham a route back to the Barclays Premier League, but it remains to be seen whether the Los Angeles Galaxy will allow their star man to go out on loan.

The 35-year-old former England captain spent the last two Major League Soccer close seasons on loan at AC Milan – and is said to be keen to return to Europe in order to prove to England manager Fabio Capello he deserves a recall to the national side.
