WASHINGTON, March 11-- Former England captain David Beckham said on Friday that he is quite fit entering the last season with the Los Angeles Galaxy, but he's still uncertain of his future after the contract expires. The 35-year-old superstar said he is ready for Tuesday's Major League Soccer season opener at Seattle, his fifth campaign in the US league. "I'm excited. I'm ready for the season," Beckham said. "I wanted to make sure my fitness was right. That's why I went to Tottenham. I've been working hard." Beckham, who has scored nine goals for the Galaxy, missed six months because of a torn left Achilles' tendon. "I would say I'm 100 percent right now," Beckham said. "Last season was difficult with the injury. But I've worked hard this season and gotten my body back to where it needs to be. I'm very close." Asked if he might yet play again for an English club after his training stint with Tottenham earlier this year, Beckham said: "Who knows? I had a great career in England for 12-13 years. I've always said that I never wanted to play for another English club, because Manchester United is such a great club. I'm getting older now and I don't have many years left. This is my last contract year but who knows what will happen." |
