LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham admits he's flattered to be linked with a return to Real Madrid. "I don't know," Beckham said when asked if he could see himself playing for Madrid again. "To even be asked the question at 34 years old is quite flattering.

"I never thought I'd be here on loan and playing for a club like AC Milan. What happens in the future, I don't know. At the moment, all I'm concentrating on is the game on Sunday.

"If Florentino (Perez) gets in, which is looking likely, then I think it's the best thing for the club.

"I think he's a great man. He's a man who knows the club inside-out. He's a man who always does the best for the players, the club and the fans. He's a president who creates an excitement with his passion for the game."
