LA Galaxy's Beckham unlikely to see out Olympics

LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham will not stay in London for the entirety of the Olympic Games according to reports.

The 37-year old was left out of Stuart Pearce's Great Britain squad for this summer's Games but was set to be handed an ambassadorial role by chairman of the London Games, Lord Sebastian Coe.

It was believed that Beckham was set to stay in his home city for the 27 July to 12 August competition but it has since been suggested that he will concentrate on upcoming fixtures for the Galaxy as well as the MLS All-Star game against Chelsea on July 25.
