Ali Syed declares he wants to bring Beckham to Blackburn Rovers

Indian tycoon Ahsan Ali Syed wants to bring LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham to Blackburn Rovers when he buys the club. The Bahrain-based millionaire is a huge Beckham fan and will promise the former England skipper a massive pay day to end his career at Ewood Park.

He said: "I was 26 when I started following the Premier League. I used to like Blackburn back then and also used to follow Manchester United's fortunes because of David Beckham.

"If my finances allow and his intentions are positive then I would love to take Beckham."

Ali Syed is currently going through Blackburn's books and hopes to seal his £300m takeover within a month.
