West Ham United co-owner David Gold admits that he is keen on signing former England captain David Beckham.

West Ham United co-owner David Gold has admitted that he is keen on signing David Beckham.

The former England captain, 37, intends to leave Los Angeles Galaxy next month in order to pursue "one last challenge".

Gold has a lot of respect for Beckham and believes that it would be a huge declaration of the Hammers' ambition if they were able to bring the player to Upton Park.

"He was an ambassador for the London 2012 bid and it would be a fantastic statement if he came to us," said Gold.

"He's an East End boy and it would be a fitting end to his career. We've also been mindful of his value as an ambassador to help us secure the Olympic stadium."

Leytonstone-born Beckham represented England 115 times at senior level between 1996 and 2009.
