After many different transfer stories Real Madrid were the ones to offer the best price. The Spanish club paid £25 million for Beckham who agreed to the move. Because of the move he and his family decided to move abroad to be closer to his new team. Beckham spent a successful four years at Real Madrid playing alongside the likes of Zidane, Figo and Ronaldo before moving on once again to LA Galaxy. Beckham had been involved with LA Galaxy and the Major Soccer League but spoke about his desire to play there.

He returned back to La Galaxy but was then loaned out again in 2010. Beckham's latest dream was to play in a Paris Saint Germain football shirt, he admired the French team and who would blame him with their recent form.
PSG are currently top of French ligue 1 with 77 points, some well-known players who wear the Paris Saint Germain football shirt include Ibrahimovich and Thiago Silva. After officially hanging up his Paris Saint Germain football shirt he also claimed that he would like to continue to have something to do with the club, PSG coach also admitted that he would love Beckham to stay with the club and take on another role such as something ambassadorial. Many football fans are shocked and upset that the former England player has announced his retirement. Other former England players and football legends such as Paul Scholes and Jamie Carragher have recently announced their retirement. David, Victoria, sons Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and daughter Harper are set to move to London permanently and the two Beckhams will now be concentrating on their commercial careers. We are sad to see Beckham go after becoming such as legend. Beckham enjoyed playing for his latest team Paris Saint Germain and admitted he thoroughly enjoyed playing in his Paris Saint Germain football shirt.
