Beckham travels to Toronto with Galaxy
Saturday, 4 August 2007
LOS ANGELES, Aug 3 (AFP): David Beckham's much anticipated Major League Soccer debut could still come in Toronto Saturday, a Los Angeles Galaxy spokesman said Thursday.
The former England captain has missed the Galaxy's last three games with a nagging ankle injury since his brief debut appearance for the MLS side in a friendly against Chelsea on July 21.
He failed to travel with his new teammates to Texas Tuesday as they completed their SuperLiga group campaign with a thrilling 6-5 win over FC Dallas, instead remaining in Los Angeles for continued treatment. "David will travel to Toronto with the squad Friday," the Galaxy spokesman said. "None of the squad trained today, they all stayed inside to work on weights in a regeneration session. The decision on whether he will play against Toronto FC will be made once we arrive there."
