Fore note: This story will follow the career of David Beckham once he leaves LA Galaxy. I will start looking for work after the 1st of December which is the end of the MLS cup. I wont be sticking at one club as this is Beckhams future journey. I will also be doing this story in a newspaper style format. Basically headlines and not chapters. I will also try do this on a monthly basis and some important events will get their own post.
Beckham Announces Intentions:
2-12-2012
One day after winning the MLS Cup superstar David Beckham has announced his plans to the world. It was common knowledge that Beckham would be leaving LA Galaxy however it was widely expected he would continue playing. These reports were wide of the mark as Beckham has announced he intends to enter management instead.

Beckham had this to say "I would like to thank all my fans for their fantastic support over the years. They have been an inspiration to me and drove me to play at the level they were accustomed to. It is with regret that I signal my retirement from professional football but my legs are tired and im running out of gas. I do plan to remain in football and last year in secret I completed my coaching badges. I decided to do this privately as I didnt want to draw negative attention on the team before my retirement. I just hope I can live up to my reputation as a manager now and nurture some good young talent."
General feedback is positive and most fans believe Beckham is suited to being a modern manager due to his exposure to the Media and how he thrives under the pressure. Club chairmen around Europe however are unsure if it would be a good move for Beckham to join them as it would bring a mass media attention to the fray too. At the moment there are few jobs available and nobody seems too keen on the former Captain Fantastic. Will Beckham get his feet on the managerial ladder? Only time will tell...
