PARIS


David Beckham is set to sign an 18-month deal with French club Paris Saint-Germain, according to the local news media.

After months of negotiations, Beckham will sign his contract with PSG in the beginning of January according to French daily L'Equipe.

The 36-year-old former England captain would earn 800,000 euros ($1.05 million) per month, French daily Le Parisien claimed.

If agreed, the deal would end Beckham's time in Major League Soccer, having led Los Angeles Galaxy to the title in the season just past. He still has ambitions of playing for Britain in the Olympics in London next year.

Backed by wealthy Qatari investors, PSG has spent more than 85 million euros ($111 million) this summer to sign nine players.

Beckham has stated, regardless of reports of him apparently signing a contract with PSG, he has yet decided where his future lies.

His wife is a succesfull fashion icon, but there children are settled and living a lavish lifestyle in LA. I wouldn't be surprised if he signed a contract extension with Gaaxy! They have been good to him and his is a god with the fans. If he was any jack of the street it would be shit. Merchandising and awareness is the only benefit PSG want him. Like any club who would want to sign him. A gifted soccer player, but that's secondary now.

What makes me laugh is that LA spent a ton of money on that team and only have one cup, while Houston has one of the cheapest teams and we have two.
