Levante midfielder Juanlu has urged David Beckham to forget about buying Malaga and instead try for his club.

Real Madrid and Manchester United legend Beckham is being linked with a takeover of Malaga this week with former LA Galaxy chief Alexi Lalas.

Juanlu laughed: "I'd tell Beckham it would be better to buy Levante and give us joy.

"Talking to Malaga and the Sheikh he'll have to put in hundred-odd million ... let's invite him here with a couple of paellas and a VIP box!"
