Los Angeles Galaxy have announced a closer strategic alliance with Tottenham.
Tim Leiweke, president of the American sports and entertainment giant AEG that owns the Galaxy and is bidding in partnership with Spurs to take over the London 2012 Olympic stadium after the Games, told reporters the two sides were forging a strategic alliance.
"We have an existing relationship now with Tottenham where we are beginning to think outside the box on football and how we do things together on football," he said.
"Whether that's David Beckham training (with Spurs) or maybe players from Tottenham coming to the Galaxy, playing games against each other.
"Strategically you'll see more of an alliance between us and Tottenham long term."
