The 36-year-old is leaving AC Milan on a free transfer this summer and has six offers from across the football world.
Sources close to the player claim at least one English club are keen to sign him, with reports in Brazil naming Tottenham as making an approach.

It's the Daily Fail, so a no go. Although we know Harry likes his oldies..

about 10 years ago, not now

He's been linked with a move to the MLS (Montreal I think) and to Anzhi.

No thanks. Actually looked off the pace at that Soccer Aid thing

 

[mpickard2087]

Very good player in his time. Should stick to Soccer Aid matches now though.

Would be a triffic lad to have around the dressing room as H would say. Phenomenal career.

This! Great player, but too old now.

No thanks we have enough players past their peaks on our books, we can do without adding one more.

And I guess he's looking to cash in while clubs still want him, so it's off to Russia or summat.

 

[Spurger King]

Fuck me, what other old codger are we going to be linked with next?

 

[tobi]

He's going to Brazil.

 

[Graysonti]

Useless now so no

I think he was just trying to be nice as it was a charity game. I got the impression he could have scored for fun if he wanted to.

Spooky. Or is it?

He'll still be better to have in the squad than a few I could mention.

 

[hellava_tough]

What was he like for Milan last year?

Does he still have one last season in him as a squad player with us?

If he does (and that's a big if) his experience would be good for the younger players - I mean, you're talking about a guy who's won pretty much everything at club level

Also depends how much a week he wants. I would imagine that the Chinese and possibly American clubs could pay him more, but then again he might want one season in the EPL before his pay-day abroad

If his legs are indeed gone, he could always play in front of the back four when we need someone to. His movement, vision and range of passing is still pretty incredible

TBH, a lot of 'ifs' in there, but not necessarily as crazy a transfer as it sounds, especially as some fans would still like to see Beckham at the club

Yeah he and Crespo were trying to get it to the celebs to score rather than go for it themselves, unlike a certain Kevin Philips.

 

[Spurrific]

Yeah, I guess it was just a kick-about for Seedorf, still don't think he could hack it in the Premier League.
