Real Madrid's sporting director Mijatovic has indicated today that the club wants David Beckham to make a final decision on his future next week. Story here.

Mijatovic was quoted as saying on Real's website: "Next week we will deal with this matter.

There has been a lot of fall-out since Real Madrid lost to Deportivo in a dismal display on Sunday. A post-mortem has been held within the club and now many rumors as to what was discussed and what scape-goats were singled out are circulating. Amongst these is a rumor that David Beckham's offer of a contract extension will be withdrawn and that Capello does not want him to stay. AS.com have published what they are calling "Capello's black list" which names 8 players that Capello is not happy with for various reasons, this article has been picked up by other media who are reporting that Capello has asked for Cassano, Beckham and Ronaldo to be sold or allowed to come off contract, details here. It is impossible to know, what if any truth there may be to these rumors, but certainly with Real Madrid placing a public deadline on David Beckham making a decision, there should be more news on this next week.

There are some new training photos from todays session on the Real Madrid site. It was announced today that the media and fans will be restricted to 15 minutes access at open-door training sessions from now on. The media responded by walking out and not staying for a scheduled press conference with Diego Lopez. It seems a shame that fans including children won't have access to any training sessions. According to Marca.com access of the Real Madrid TV and official website will also be limited so there may be less photos etc in future.
