It has been widely reported that Ruud Van Nistelrooy has requested a transfer from Manchester United and that front runners to sign him are Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. It will be interesting to see what the outcome will be because in the past Becks and Van the Man were an incredible duo for United. Ruud is a brilliant finisher and Becks is a brilliant supplier, could a re-union be in the cards? I certainly would like to see that! For more on this in English check the BBC and in Spanish As.com 'As' also have been running a poll on their front page asking if David Beckham's contract should be extended - the results after more than 1000 votes show 65% of voters are for an extension.

Finally, Reuters have reported that David and his corporate partners are looking for a site for a third David Beckham Academy in Asia. You can view the story here

P.S I have been a bit slow with uploading the photos for the gallery, I have more than 1000 still to add and it has taken me a while to sort through them but I'll be trying to get the bulk of them online this week! Hope you have a great weekend -- Anna
