Family comes first for Beckham

David Beckham has said family will come first when deciding his next career move, despite being flattered by interest from Paris St Germain.

The 36-year-old's contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy expires after the current Major League Season and PSG, who have been active in the transfer market following their takeover by the Qatar Investment Authority, have made no secret of their desire to lure the former England captain to the Parc des Princes.

Beckham told www.sports.fr: "This (the family) is the number one priority, family comes 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."

The former England captain has worked previously with PSG sporting director Leonardo during his two loan spells at AC Milan and has been keeping a close eye on happenings in the French capital.

He said: "I had a good relationship with him when I was in Milan the first time and also when he was manager the second time.

"He's a great sporting director and a wonderful person. I'm flattered that he wants me to come join him and the team in Paris, but I'm a Galaxy player, I live in Los Angeles, I am happy there and I play for them.

"There are great things happening in France at several clubs, but it's an exciting time for PSG...Leonardo joining them, the money the club has, so it's an interesting club."
