| WHY DAVID BECKHAM IS WRONG FOR PARIS ST GERMAIN ... |
However attractive it looks, the thought of David Beckham joining Paris St Germain, should be resisted. Beckham was never remotely close to being the greatest footballer of his generation but he has always been the biggest star. And since his contract with Los Angeles Galaxy expires next month, he is available and has worked with PSG’s sporting director, Leonardo, when they were at AC Milan.
However, the reason why he should not be asked to come to Paris lies in Leonardo’s statement that he is: “more than a footballer, he is a brand, he is a pop star.” PSG do not need pop stars or brands, they need serious footballers to achieve their objectives of winning Ligue 1. Beckham is 36 and he has not been a frontline footballer since leaving Real Madrid three years ago. For too long Paris St Germain has been out of the mainstream in European football. The future at the Parc des Princes lies in players like Javier Pastore not Beckham.
