Midfielder David Beckham has re-signed with the Los Angeles Galaxy, according to a report on the club’s website.
Beckham, 36, is coming off perhaps his best season in a Galaxy uniform, leading the team to their first MLS Cup Championship since 2005.
In Beckham’s five seasons with Los Angeles, the Galaxy have reached the MLS Cup twice while Beckham himself was named to the MLS All-Star Team twice. In 2011, Beckham recorded a career-best 15 assists as the Galaxy finished the season with a 19–5–10 record.
“This was an important decision for me,” Galaxy midfielder David Beckham said, according to a release on the team’s website. “I had many offers from clubs from around the world; however, I’m still passionate about playing in America and winning trophies with the Galaxy.”
Beckham and the LA Galaxy will open preseason ahead of the 2012 MLS season next week at The Home Depot Center.
