David Beckham

Becks won't play for Tottenham

Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp has admitted his plan to bring in David Beckham "looks like a no-goer".

Spurs were among a handful of Premier League clubs keen to recruit Beckham on loan from the Los Angeles Galaxy during the Major League Soccer close season.

But Redknapp told Sky Sports News ahead of today's third round FA Cup tie at against Charlton: "I don't think it's going to happen, I think there are problems with the insurance.

"David is welcome to come and train here for a month or so which I think he would like to do but it looks like, as far as playing goes, it looks like a no-goer.

"It couldn't happen so, not a problem, we'll just get on with it."

Redknapp said the deal had fallen through because of problems over an insurance fee, which the Galaxy demanded after he picked up an Achilles injury during his last spell on loan in Europe with AC Milan.

It will come as a blow to the 115-cap midfielder, who had been hoping to catch the eye of England boss Fabio Capello with a two-month loan spell at the Barclays Premier League side.

A statement released on the Spurs website at mid-day confirmed that Beckham would train with the club, rather than play, for a month.

"Tottenham Hotspur is delighted to announce that England's most capped outfield player, David Beckham will train with the first-team squad," the statement read.

"David will train with the Club until February 10 when he will be required to return to LA Galaxy ahead of the start of the MLS season."

The announcement came as a surprise given that Redknapp said on Friday that a loan deal for Beckham was "90% done" and insisted that the 35-year-old could have been in the stands for today's clash at White Hart Lane.

The Spurs boss was disappointed not to have signed Beckham, but still thinks the veteran's influence around his young team will help in their push for a place in next year's Champions League.

Redknapp said: "We'd love to have him here for longer but respect his commitments to LA Galaxy.

"They wanted him back in early February so that made it difficult to do a playing deal on the basis of three weeks.

"David is a fantastic professional - he will be a great influence around the place and I am sure we will all benefit from his winning mentality.

"I think everyone will enjoy having him here."

Beckham, who has previously trained with Spurs' north London rivals Arsenal, could start work at the club's Essex training ground this week and is looking forward to the experience.

Beckham said: "It's important that I maintain a high level of fitness during the MLS off season.

"I'm thankful to Tottenham and Harry Redknapp for giving me the opportunity to train with the team over the next month.

"I'm grateful to the LA Galaxy for allowing to me to train with Spurs. I look forward to getting to work as soon as possible."

Had Beckham signed a playing deal with Spurs, he would have been in line to make his debut against his former team Manchester United in next Sunday's match between the two sides at White Hart Lane.

David Beckham to the rescue as man's car breaks down on busy English road

DAVID Beckham put other motorists to shame when he came to the aid of a man whose car broke down at a busy intersection in Ware, southern England, with the stunned motorist telling the soccer superstar "I love you, mate."

Paul Long was taking his children -- Josephine, 6, and Fabian, 8 -- to school when the car came to an unexpected halt, he told the BBC.

After being stuck for about 10 minutes, "Eventually I saw a car pull over in the distance and a man in a hoodie got out," Long said.

"He pulled the hood down and as he got nearer to the car I realised it was David Beckham."

Beckham, who has been training with English Premier League team Tottenham Hotspur while on a break from the Los Angeles Galaxy, was the first to offer assistance, Long said.

"He asked if we were OK and I said we'd broken down and could he push us to the side," he said.

"When we'd pushed the car to safety -- and I have to say another man stopped to help by this point -- he asked if we were OK and I said: 'David Beckham, I love you, mate.'"

Beckham first linked up with the Spurs camp in January in an effort to maintain his fitness during the MLS offseason and will stay with them until February 22, at which he will rejoin the Galaxy for the start of the MLS season.

David and Victoria Beckham have named their newborn daughter Harper Seven.

The soccer superstar - who wore a number seven shirt when he played for Manchester United and England – revealed the baby’s name in a posting on his Facebook page and said both mother and baby, who was born Sunday morning at Los Angeles' Cedars Sinai hospital, are “doing well.”

David Beckham – who already has three sons, Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, eight, and six-year-old Cruz, with Victoria - wrote: "I am so proud and excited to announce the birth of our daughter Harper Seven Beckham. She weighed a healthy 7lbs 10oz and arrived at 7.55 this morning, here in LA.

“Victoria is doing really well and her brothers are delighted to have a baby sister xx."

David and Victoria are thought to have chosen the name Harper – which is a popular moniker for both boys and girls in the U.S. - because of its "lovely sound," while Seven was decided upon due because it is considered a lucky digit.

A source in Los Angeles told The Sun newspaper: "The couple loved the name Harper. It has no hidden meaning - they just fell for the name and think it has a lovely sound.

"They went for Seven as a middle name as they think it is a lucky and spiritual number. And the baby arrived around 7 a.m. in July - the seventh month."

The tot was delivered by Caesarean section

It's such a bad name in my opinion .. it's huge for a little girl .. more like an old lady name

what do you think ?

I think David got a little belly .. that's not good !!

what a revotling name...it looks like a name of a broomstick out of Harry Potter....sheesh....

Harper is hardly a "revolting" name, you'd think they had called her Crap or something. It's a nice name and not that unusual in the US, according to the office of name statistics.
