Redknapp keen on Becks
Former England captain David Beckham would be welcomed back at Tottenham Hotspur with “open arms” and could this time be registered as a player, the Premier League club's manager Harry Redknapp said on Friday.
Beckham, 36, trained with Spurs earlier this year during the Major League Soccer close season although plans to register him as a player failed to materialise.
Beckham, whose five-year contract with Los Angeles Galaxy ends in November, continues to be linked with a return to the Premier League and has made no secret of wanting to play for Great Britain as an over-age player in next year's London Olympics.
Redknapp on Saturday, told reporters: “He came and trained with us and he has been fantastic around the place, not only as a guy but also as a player.
“I found him to be an absolute top class professional and the type of player you would love to have around the young players who could look up to him as a great role model.”
