Being picked to play in the Copa del Rey means you're definitely not in the manager's plans for the main competitions (at least not as a starter)
However, I suspect all these rumours about leaving in January are part of the back and forth in the negotiations over Beckham's contract. If what he wants is to win titles, there's only a handful of teams in Europe that can fulfil that ambition. He clearly does not ‘travel well’ and I don’t see him uprooting his family and moving to a non-English-speaking country, so the only option is to move back to the Premiership to Man U, Arsenal or Chelsea, or to go to the MLS and make another pile of money there, trading on his image before it declines completely.
Would Man U, Arsenal or Chelsea find a place in their starting line-up for David Beckham? I suspect not. I expect him to sign for another year or two, and then move to the U.S.
We’ll know more in 3 months or so…
