Beckham wants similar PSG role as Giggs and Scholes at Man Utd

David Beckham does not expect to be a regular starter at Paris Saint-Germain, but hopes to take on the same role as Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes at his old club Manchester United, reports The Guardian. "I might be able to create good things that happen off the field but on the field is where I want to be successful. I want to be a champion and I want to win trophies," the 37 year old told al-Jazeera and TalkSport.

"That's been my mentality all the way through my career. Your motivation never changes, once you have that motivation in you it continues throughout your whole life.

"Players like Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes at Manchester United, they don't play every game but when they do play they are big influences in the game. So I am looking to do that to continue to be successful."
