DAVID Beckham helped lead the Los Angeles Galaxy to his first MLS title on Sunday but refused to be drawn on his future with his contract soon to run out.
His performance in the 1-0 MLS Cup victory over the Houston Dynamo finally validated the former England skipper's decision to move to Los Angeles in 2007.
Beckham's five-year contract with the Galaxy finishes after an upcoming Asian tour but he has not ruled out signing a new deal with the club despite interest from big-spending French side Paris St. Germain and English teams. "Whether I stay or not, I've had an amazing five years," he said. "I'm not in a rush to decide what happens."
Beckham was a big part of the win, helping set up Landon Donovan for the goal despite battling a hamstring injury.
"This was a special year and I'm so happy to have been a part of this," the former Manchester United and Real Madrid player said. "It's always nice to have doubters along the way, and it's nice to prove them wrong."
"I've been around great athletes in different sports and this guy is as good as they come," Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said. "He's done it all in every country he's been in. What more can you ask for?"
