Move would be short-term for Beckham

David Beckham is not looking for a permanent transfer to Tottenham and any move to the north-London club would only be on a loan basis, a representative for the former England captain has insisted. Beckham is keen to return to Europe during the MLS close season with a view to proving to England manager Fabio Capello he deserves a recall to the national side. Harry Redknapp confirmed on Monday Spurs are locked in talks with Beckham's parent club, Los Angeles Galaxy, about a deal for the 35-year-old after making a bid for the star last week. "At the moment we are waiting on the decision of LA Galaxy with regards to a loan move," the spokesman told Press Association Sport. "The loan would be a short one until the start of the MLS season. David would then return and play a full season with the Galaxy. "Tottenham are one of many clubs who are interested but as yet we have not got into any detailed conversations as we are waiting on LA Galaxy's decision."
