Beckham backing Ibra and PSG to shock Chelsea

Manchester United legend David Beckham believes PSG can upset Chelsea in their Champions League quarterfinal.

Beckham had a stint with PSG in the final stages of his playing career.

"The owners that run the club, they want the best and they've got the best," Beckham told beIN Sport. "Thiago Silva, for instance, is the best defender in the world.

"Zlatan [Ibrahimovic] is a character but he's also one of the best players I've ever played with. He's a great man. He's a player that I loved playing with.

"I think they've got a real chance in the Champions League this year. They're coming up against a Chelsea team with Jose Mourinho as manager, who takes them to a different level.

"But I do think [PSG] have got a good chance."
