L.A Galaxy Agree to Beckham Tottenham Loan

It looks as if David Beckham will definitely be returning to England to play for Tottenham, as L.A Galaxy have agreed to let him leave on loan. A Tottenham spokesperson confirmed: "LA Galaxy say they will loan."

Tottenham have always been the favourites to sign Beckham - and not only because they are the biggest club to have shown an interest. The presence of Philip Anschutz, the L.A Galaxy owner has most probably been the biggest factor in the MLS sides preference to let Beckham leave for Tottenham too; his company, 'The Anschutz Entertainment Group' are in partnership with Tottenham over plans to take over the Olympic Stadium, and it is thought, he has had the final say in Beckhams short term future.

There had been some anger in America that Beckham was seeking to leave the MLS on loan again, as he has no World cup to "prepare for" and his chances of gaining his spot in the England team are now quite slim. Some critics of the move have said that Beckham is being disloyal to Galaxy, and he isn't paying the club enough respect, while others claimed it was all just about grabbing headlines and making money. The Tottenham manager said on the week end:

 "One thing is for sure - David is not coming here for the money. He is a multi-millionaire. He just wants to play football and that tells you everything you need to know about him."

Quite right.

Beckham and his wife have also had their sons enrolled in a private school in England, confirming that the move to Tottenham will go ahead, as the family prepares for life back home.

Beckham is likely to join his new Tottenham team-mates in the next few days - meaning he will have settled back in England by the time Spurs play the midfielders former club, Manchester United on the 16th January.

Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey Joins Nottingham Forest

Pic: Ramsey is on a one month loan deal

The young Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has joined Nottingham Forest on a loan deal lasting until the 3rd January 2011.

It is hoped that the more games the 19 year old gets, the more match fit he will become as he admitted that he is a bit behind in his fitness levels compared to his team mates after his first competitive match for Arsenal since he broke his leg 9 months ago.

"I'm as fit as all the rest of the lads but [playing in a competitive game] proved I am a bit behind"

An Arsenal statement said:

"Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Aaron the best of luck during his time with Nottingham Forest and we all look forward to seeing him once again in an Arsenal shirt in the New Year."

The Welshman made 29 appearances in all competitions last season for Arsenal before his injury, scoring four times. Ramsey had planned on staying at Arsenal and fighting for his place in the first team, but if anyone knows how to nurture a young player it is Wenger, and sending him on loan will increase his confidence with the ball on the pitch as well as improving his fitness.

A broken leg doesn't just damage a player physically; there are obviously mental barriers to get through and it takes a strong minded character to get through them. Time will tell whether Ramsey will ever be as good a player as was hoped before his injury, but there is no doubt that he has the ability that got him noticed at Cardiff.
