In a conversation with CNBC, David Beckham finally spoke about joining Manchester United as an ambassador and all the interest and uncertainty that exists about a possible purchase of the team by an important Qatari group. “I have had a long-standing relationship with Qatar. Obviously there has been a connection since I was at PSG,” David Beckham said about it.
"I think something will happen. There will be new owners, it's the right time. We all have our own opinion on who should take charge of the club, but for me it has to be someone who cares about the club and takes it back to where it belongs," Beckham confessed about the great opportunity that exists to take Manchester United back to the place they so deserve today. “The time is right for someone else to take over at Manchester United!”
During these days, some phrases that he gave in the David Beckham documentary echoed, all about his departure from Manchester United. “I think the relationship was stagnant. It wouldn't have made sense for me to tell him in person that I was going to sell it. It was the best decision, it was the right time,” Ferguson said today. Beckham, still hurt, concluded: “I couldn't talk to him (Ferguson). He would have begged to stay. It's a good thing we didn't talk because he would have hurt me. That was the end. The end at United.”
What does David Beckham say about joining Manchester United?
"Being an ambassador? At the moment there is no discussion about it, but everyone knows that I am a Manchester United fan. I have been talking about the situation at Manchester United for several years. I grew up in a Manchester United with a lot of stability. Manchester United will always be "Manchester United. It will always be one of the biggest clubs in the world. We have to recover that, for the fans, for the players, for the staff, for the coach."
