It seems like it is the start of a new trend with the older generation of famous soccer players, leaving big teams and going overseas for their last years. The case of David Beckham is the first one to have the words come to life, at least most of them, he said he did not want people to think that he was going to United States only to make money ant a few days later he put a pen to it. David Beckham, the idol of millions of kids and no doubt millions of business-minded adults is set to become one of the highest paid sportsmen in the world after signing a five-year deal worth up to US$250 with Major League Soccer team the Los Angeles Galaxy.The question most of us are asking is why? And the more concurred answer is that he has probably grown up. To be critics of his "greed" is so easy but when you think about it wouldnt you like to be in his place? The former England captain may have just arrived at that juncture in his life when his greatest passion became blurry, even to himself. Passion can drive one to glory, but the present can faint the past. To be fair to Beckham I have to say it is surprising that he managed to remain at the high level that he has been at for so many years despite the fame, money and controversies that have cascaded down on him since his very young days. Married famous singer and fashion icon chased by the media, high profile fights with his manager, business disputes, and scandals. Mixed in with all of those kinds of things was one spectacular goal after another and arguably consistent performances that earned him the England captaincy.The deal that he is closing with the LA Galaxy only brings out that Beckham the soccer player has gone as far as he could, perhaps even farther than most of us and the critics would have expected. However it is now that Beckham the marketing icon is taking over the decisions from a player who gave his soccer fans a lot of happy times.
