According to AP reports, David Beckham will miss the World Cup and most if not all the Los Angeles Galaxy season after tearing his left Achilles’ tendon Sunday while playing for AC Milan. His international career for England is all but over. It remains to be seen how much he’ll have left for the Galaxy and Major League Soccer.
“He will miss the World Cup for sure,” a person familiar with the injury told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because an official announcement had not been made. The person said it was likely the 34-year-old midfielder will play again.
Beckham was injured without getting hit during AC Milan’s 1-0 Italian League win over visiting Chievo Verona.
