LA Galaxy star Beckham tipped for player-manager GB Olympics job

David Beckham is being lined up as Great Britain's player-coach for the 2012 London Olympics.

The LA Galaxy star is on the brink of a loan move to Tottenham.

And London Olympics chief Lord Coe hinted last night that Becks could manage a British football team featuring stars like Steven Gerrard of Liverpool and Manchester United's Wayne Rooney at the 2012 Games.

Beckham tasted international management in 2010, becoming a member of Fabio Capello's England staff for the World Cup.
