Moyes and Beckham were teammates at Preston, when the young midfielder was only a promise of 19 years.
Everton coach David Moyes, has offered David Beckham the chance to return to the Premiership to play on loan from January. Beckham, 35, has played the past two winters loan at AC Milan from the Los Angeles Galaxy, but Moyes hopes that the English decided to go home now.
Moyes and Beckham were partners in the Preston, when the young midfielder was only a promise of 19 years who still had some time to succeed at Manchester United, the club he left in 2003 to join Real Madrid. Seven years later, Everton Beckham expected to be tempted by the prospect of returning to the Premier.
"I hope you call me if you want to come. Just call me or Phil Neville," said Moyes. Beckham and Neville, the current captain of Everton, a close friend from his days in the youth ranks at Manchester and the desire to Moyes is getting together in midfield. The coach of the "toffees" admitted that should be taken into account the financial aspect, given the high tab Beckham, but promised to speak to the club president, Bill Kenwright.
"I'll ask if we could get enough selling shirts with his name," said Moyes. Beckham has just returned from a long injury, a ruptured Achilles tendon in a game last season with Milan, which prevented him from playing the World Cup. The player ended the season in the MLS, the league of the U.S., in good shape and, although last September said it was unlikely to return to Europe, the British media consider a move to Everton is possible taking into account the desire of Beckham playing again for England.
David Beckham has been international for his country 115 times and has said repeatedly that he would break the record of goalkeeper Peter Shilton, the most capped player has worn the three lions shirt (125). Currently, the player is in Australia with the LA Galaxy to play a game today, after which it will fly to Zurich (Switzerland) as part of the delegation of England's bid to host the World Cup in 2018.
