MLS chief Garber insists Beckham will be back after World Cup

MLS commissioner Don Garber has confirmed that LA Galaxy star David Beckham will be back in the USA after this year's World Cup. The England international is currently on loan with Italian giants AC Milan as he prepares for the tournament in South Africa which kicks off in June and Garber says he will definitely be back as a MLS player afterwards.

"David will be back after the World Cup, no doubt about that," Garber said.

"He has been a success. There are always going to be people, particularly in England, that look at everything and don't see the positives.

"Our league is on the map globally, he's one of the most popular people on the planet and he plays in Major League Soccer for Los Angeles Galaxy."
