\n\tDavid Beckham\u2019s sights are fixed on playing in the London Olympics next year, but the superstar said on Thursday he was less sure about his future when his contract with Los Angeles Galaxy ends.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tThe 36-year-old former England captain, who is in the Philippines as part of a week-long Asian tour by LA Galaxy, told reporters he still had to make up his mind about his future.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\tAsked about his Olympic hopes, Beckham said “I am very proud to be playing for my country. I would like to be part of the (Great Britain) team. Hopefully I will be involved in that and I\u2019ll be going (home) in the summer.”<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tBut he was less sure about who he would be playing for after his LA Galaxy contract expires at the end of the year.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t“I\u2019m proud of the time I spent with Galaxy. It might continue but at the end of the day, I have to make that decision, but I haven\u2019t made it yet,” he said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tLA Galaxy had a “tough game” when it earned a 1-0 win over a spirited Indonesian All Stars on Wednesday, Beckham said, adding that he expected another hard game against the national team, the Philippine Azkals on Saturday.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
