David Beckham is confident his decision to train with Tottenham will benefit the Los Angeles Galaxy in the long run.<\/p>\n
The former England captain spent a six-week spell with the Premier League club as he looked to maintain his fitness levels having only returned from an Achilles injury late in the last Major League Soccer campaign.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old had even hoped to play for Spurs but negotiations between the clubs broke down.<\/p>\n
Beckham’s Galaxy contract runs out in November and the midfielder believes training with Spurs will stand him in good stead.<\/p>\n
“My only objective was to get fit for the Galaxy and the MLS season,” he told reporters at the Galaxy’s training ground.<\/p>\n
“My objective was not to play for a Premier League team, and I am grateful to Spurs and Harry (Redknapp) for how they looked after me.<\/p>\n
“If there was an option to play then I would have taken it, but without doubt I wanted to go somewhere and train and not take the three months off and sit around doing nothing.<\/p>\n
“At this stage of my career and with the injury I had I felt it was more important for me to train.<\/p>\n
“This was the time I was always going to come back, that was agreed and nothing would have changed that.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
