David Beckham trains with Tottenham
David Beckham today took part in his first training session with Tottenham Hotspur in London England. The former Manchester United, Real Madrid and AC Milan player has been one of the main transfer targets of this years January transfer window...
At the moment, it is understood that there has been no agreement between Tottenham and Beckham s current club, LA Galaxy. Even so, Beckham will be training with the club until he his required to return to the states in preparation for the MLS season. According to sources close to the deal, the potential loan deal is not completely dead and still remains a possibility. If an agreement is reached by the end of the week, Beckham could face making an appearance against his former club Manchester United! You couldn't write a better story line!
Being the enthusiastic boot fans that we are here at SoccerBible, our eyes were immediately drawn to Beckham s boots. The official adidas DB Predator X football boots were recently showcased to you here on SoccerBible and from the looks of things, Beckham is wearing a customized version of these Predators.
They look similar to the boots he was spotted wearing late last year for LA Galaxy towards the end of the MLS Season. Beckham has become known for preferring the PowerSwerve soleplate with a two-piece outsole in place of the adidas PowerSpine soleplate that feature on the official release. His boots also feature some bespoke personalization with the names of each of his sons stitched into the outside of the boots along with an England flag on the heel.
We can't be 100% sure what the upper is made from but we don't expect it to be leather as Beckham has previously opted for synthetic boots due to personal preference. It was a surprise to see the official adidas release of this boot feature a leather upper as all of Beckham s recent signature boots have been synthetic.
We'd love to here what adidas have to say about Beckham wearing Puma. Famously adidas' most famous endorser, it looks strange seeing Becks in the Puma Spurs training gear!
So, are there any Spurs fans out there? What do you make of the developing situations regarding the possible transfer of footballs biggest name?
