For a 38-year-old player, retirement is normal, but in the case of David Beckham, the feeling is quite surprising.
Thus, the last club in Beckham’s career is Paris St-Germain, the team he stayed with for only 5 months and once offered him a one-year contract extension after the end of the current season.
`I want to thank PSG leaders for their intention to create opportunities for me to continue playing,` said the handsome midfielder.
PSG still has two more matches this season in Ligue I, but has already won the championship.

`When I was a kid, if someone had said that in the future I would be able to play and win many titles with my favorite team Man Utd, wear the captain’s armband of the national team and play for many other famous clubs.
Not winning any titles with the team, Beckham is the only English player to score in three consecutive World Cup finals and is the second best passer in Euro history.
`To this day, one of my proudest achievements is being captain of the national team,` he continued.
Beckham’s successful career is due in no small part to his solid rear.
Beckham’s success is not just on the field.
