Sam: Becks won't swap LA for Lancs
lackburn manager Sam Allardyce does not believe LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham is likely to be interested in a move to Ewood Park.[LNB] Rovers' prospective new owner Ahsan Ali Syed has vowed to back Allardyce in the transfer market if a takeover goes through and admitted recently that he would love to sign Beckham.[LNB]Allardyce feels such a move would be good for the profile of the club, while he also thinks Beckham could still be successful in the Premier League at the age of 35.[LNB]However, he doubts whether the Galaxy midfielder would be open to a switch back to England after leaving Manchester United in 2003.[LNB]"Mr Syed says that he would like to spend it on youth, and then that he would like to sign David Beckham," Allardyce told Sky Sports News. [LNB]"Obviously that's not actually youth, but that's like more of a PR signing that would bring a lot of attention to the club.[LNB]"To me it is about whether David is still good enough to play in the Premier League at his age, and he probably is.[LNB]"And the other factor is does he want to come to Blackburn and does he want to come back to England? [LNB]"In my experience the answer to that is no. He has never really wanted to play for anyone else other than Manchester United, that was the last time I spoke to him which was a number years ago, and if he can't do that then he would sooner player somewhere else in the world of football."
