Becks is a big hit for Carlo
Posted Saturday, March 30, 2013 by The Sun
CARLO ANCELOTTI wants David Beckham to be offered a new one-year deal to stay at Paris Saint-Germain.
The former England captain’s hopes of remaining in the French capital have been given a massive boost with the news that PSG boss Ancelotti is firmly on his side.
Beckham, 37, arrived from LA Galaxy in January and was given a contract until the end of the season although his wages are all being given to charity.
Ancelotti said: “Extend his contract for another year? The decision has to be taken by the club, the player and the coach. But I am for it.”
Former Chelsea chief Ancelotti also insisted he had no problems with Beckham heading to China on a PR trip during the international break.
France legend Bixente Lizarazu slammed Beckham as being “unprofessional” for heading to the Far East in his role as an ambassador for Chinese football.
Lizarazu reckoned Beckham would have been better staying in Paris ahead of a big week which saw PSG host Montpellier last night.
On Tuesday they are at home to Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-finals.
But Ancelotti said: “There’s no problem at all. Everyone agreed to let him go there and he had made those commitments before signing for PSG.”
