Man Utd legend Beckham: It'll be difficult summer

David Beckham admits he faces his toughest summer after announcing his retirement.

The former Manchester United star, who played his last game in Paris Saint-Germain's 3-1 win over Brest on Saturday, will enjoy a chance to rest after more than two decades of playing professional football.

He said: "I don't think the next two months will be difficult as I will be able to rest. But after that it will be difficult.

"I have things that will keep me busy, though. That is the important thing.

"Getting involved with an MLS franchise is an interesting option.

"I will miss football but the time is right to retire.

"I feel that I've achieved everything that I could in my career. I wanted to go out a champion. I've finished my career in a team that has treated me like I've been here 10 years."
