England boss Fabio Capello has told David Beckham to quit LA Galaxy for Europe in January - or give up on his World Cup dream.

Beckham is currently back at parent club LA Galaxy but Capello has made no secret of the fact he holds little regard for the standard of MLS football.

"Beckham knows well that if he doesn't return to a big European championship in December he'll have no chance for the World Cup," Capello told Gazzetta dello Sport.
