David Beckham rules out a move to Paris St Germain
Posted Friday, October 07, 2011 by The Sun
DAVID BECKHAM looks set to snub a multi-million pound move to France and stay in LA — for the sake of his kids.
Paris St Germain — who were bought by oil-rich Qataris in the summer — are desperate to lure Becks with a £4MILLION 18-month deal.
The former England skipper knows PSG boss Leonardo well from two loan spells at AC Milan and wife Victoria's fashion career would not be harmed by living in the chic French capital.
But Becks insists he is not in a rush to make a decision and Galaxy have offered him a year-long extension to his current deal, which expires in December.
Beckham, 36, said: "I had a good relationship with Leonardo when I was in Milan. I'm flattered he wants me to join him and the team in Paris.
"But I'm a Galaxy player, I live in Los Angeles, I am happy there.
"My family is my No 1 priority. They come first and where they are happy is where I stay, it's that simple.
"My children go to school in LA and have done for five years. They are at the age where stability is important, so we'll see.
"I always said I will wait until the end of the season, see how I feel physically and then decide. There is no urgency on my part.
"We should make the play-offs, we still have two matches to go and I'll focus on that and worry about the rest later."
The Manchester United legend is being tracked by QPR and Sven Goran Eriksson's Leicester, as well as clubs in Brazil and the Middle East.
He also has the option to invest in an MLS franchise when he finally hangs up his boots.
