David Beckham is leaving Real Madrid to move to the Los Angeles Galaxy in a reputed £128 million deal.
The former England captain is set to sign a five-year deal with the
Major League Soccer club after his contract with Real Madrid expires on
June 30 this year.
The incredible deal means that David will earn just under £500,000 a week for the duration of his contract.
He said in a statement: "This week Real Madrid asked me to make a
decision regarding their offer to extend my contract. After considering
several options to stay in Madrid or join other major British and
European teams, I have decided to join LA Galaxy."
The 31-year-old - who is married to former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham
- used the occasion to thank his Spanish fans for all their support.
He said: "I would like to thank the supporters and people in Madrid who
have made my family and I feel so welcome in my time here, something
which has made this an extremely difficult decision to make. I have
enjoyed my time in Spain enormously and I am extremely grateful to the
club for giving me the opportunity to play for such a great team and
their amazing fans."
