 Beckham rumour: Sir Fergy said it first! by Rupe
on 1/2/00 at 11:56
this is story 385 of 1143 in this topic to date
Football365 claim to have inside information (one informant has suggested that the insider's initials are DD) that Arsenal are planning a summer bid for David Beckham, and that the club is confident of getting their man (see report).

According to the report, Manchester United have recently rejected a £26 million offer from Barcelona, but Arsenal are expecting to be able to prise him away for just £18 million. Something does not add up here! Sure,so Posh would like him to move down south to be near their home and her family, but I'm sure she wouldn't mind (and I think she's even said she'd prefer) living somewhere warm and mediterranean, with fashion shows.

They also point out that United manager Alex Ferguson has become increasingly unhappy with Beckham's off-pitch antics, but I find it hard to accept that Arsène Wenger would be any more lenient. Although it comes as no surprise that Beckham's petulant and violent on-pitch behaviour is not a cause of major concern to Sir Alex, I'm sure that it would be to most Arsenal fans. If this is a leak direct from DD, surely he jests?!

Ferguson himself predicted an eventual move to Arsenal for Beckham, back at the start of the season.
